Does anyone wear a medical band saying type 2 diabetic please. And if so where is best place to get one. Thank you.
 
I wear a reversible silicone band I got from eBay, one side just has the medical alert symbol and the other says insulin dependent diabetic. I put that side out when I’m swimming or hypo.

I got something similar but mine says T2 diabetes on the inside. I didn’t know if it was overkill for a type 2 but my levels were quite high at the time and I figured it couldn’t hurt.

Mine also came from eBay and didn’t cost much.
