Yep, everywhere I go Got some in the night stand, in my purse, and quite a few tubes here in the 'office'! I kept getting a free tube with the purchase of strips at an online place! So i'm WELL prepared! LOL I need to stick some in the glove compartment of my car too! It's rare I dont have my purse with me, but just incase! I have had to use them a couple times while out driving around! Came in REAL handy there!!

FG, yep if a T2 is taking Glipizide, Glyburide and the like, they sure can go low! Boy do I know it! And i'm not talkin 60 to 70 low, I'm talkin low 40's (and even lower) Low! NOT fun!! At one point, I was going low 4 or 5 days out of 7!! Doc lowered my dose, and that helped alot, but still had about 1 - 4 or so a month, I think it was. It was like Slipperyelm was saying .... since we do still produce some insulin, you cannot control how much you will produce, and those meds up your insulin production ... so if 1 + 1 is going on ... wooo hooo you may be on a bumpy ride!
