According to Sue Marshall: You don’t need to tell a diabetic what it’s like to have a hypo, and most diabetics have something to hand, ‘just in case.’ which means you can take a tube out with you and leave the pot at home – or in a desk drawer at work, the glove compartment of the car or anywhere else that’s handy for you – and refill when required.
