Daniel - thank you for your story. I’ve only been diabetic for 2.5 months, and fortunately I haven’t encountered the same doctor issues that you have. The thought of having a low while driving is one of the scariest things I can think of. The accident scenario you described is absolutely awful, but sharing it helps those like me keep a healthy fear of the risks of driving with low blood sugar.
My wife and I are about to drive cross country, and I’ve been thinking about this issue a lot lately. I’m considering installing a lane departure warning system on my car, but I’m not sure what good the loud beeping noise and warning lights would do if my sugar is really that low. However, it’s probably better than nothing.
