Hi karatejoe, be careful! At least wear some medical ID since noone else on the street is likely to know how to help you if the need arises. Cheers!

You are a brave SOB sir. As an insulin dependent diabetic being homeless is basically a death sentence IMO.

I have to be honest with you and tell you that you are setting yourself up for disaster if all you plan to bring to treat a low is lifesavers but if you don't take insulin you probably don't go low . However if you do take insulin I strongly recommend that you bring at least a full size container of glucose tablets and some juice packets . Cause I've had lows where I have needed the entire roll of lifesavers for one low blood sugar episode
