When you said "pouch" I thought of a fanny pack! Just a thought. We should write them and make a suggestion!
Have a great day.

- that's my problem as well. if i know i'm not going to be home for lunch, i take it before breakfast, but suppertime is when i have the big problem. with the price of gas nowadays, i hate running home just to take a shot before i eat. i'm working on finding something small enough to fit in my purse that will keep it cold enough. i even checked with the pharmacy to see if they knew of anything. nada, zip. i think a travel toothbrush holder will hold the pen and a couple of needles but what to put them into to stay cold. if you figure out something let me know and i'll do the same for you.

Scott Strumello said… - Manny could provide more details, but the "Tu" in TuDiabetes is a Spanish prefix, which if I'm not mistaken, is akin to "Your"Diabetes.
