Be Prepared: A Lifeline for Diabetics
Living with diabetes requires significant lifestyle adjustments, from dietary choices to daily routines. For those seeking guidance, numerous resources such as websites, magazines, and books are available to help deepen understanding of the condition.
One of the most critical challenges diabetics face is accessing medication during emergencies. Therefore, maintaining a well-stocked emergency kit is essential. Regularly use and replace medications to ensure they remain effective. Your kit should include items like cold medications, antacids, cough syrup, test strips, and insulin with syringes, if applicable, alongside blood glucose monitoring supplies. Always read labels on over-the-counter medications and consult your doctor if there's a warning for diabetics. Keep a kit not only at home but also at work or school.
Additionally, include your medical history, prescription medications, and emergency contacts in the kit. Store these in waterproof bags. For those using insulin, have extra syringes, a glucagon emergency kit, and urine ketone strips on hand. A glucagon emergency kit is intended for severe hypoglycemic emergencies, consisting of a syringe with liquid to be mixed with a powder. Keep insulin in a cool place to prevent damage.
In disaster situations like Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, preparedness was critical. For diabetics, being prepared is crucial for personal safety and health. The best preventive strategy involves living a healthy lifestyle: eat nutritious foods and exercise regularly to maintain normal blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease and other conditions. Above all, ensure that emergency kits are always readily accessible.
