Are there devices now that you can use to check blood sugar without jabbing yourself? If so, maybe you should keep one with you as a matter of course, and but some simple hard candies to keep on hand incase you find your blood sugar dipping too low. Do you have a blood pressure cuff you can use at home? We actually have two, I think, as Paul has to regularly report his BP to one of his doctors as of course everything is all linked, and when they are changing his medication for one thing, he meeds to make sure his BP doesn't end up being affected in either direction too much.
