Best Answer

If you have Diabetes, you need many things: You need a meter to test your blood sugar along with test strips and lancets. You need syringes and insulin, a good doctor, alcohol swabs. You will need plenty test strips and lancets due to the fact that you will need to test your blood sugar 5-10 times a day. You will also need to give yourself shots 3-5 times a day. Or if you have a diabetic insulin pump, u will need an insert-er and all that supplies. Also if you are a type 2 diabetic then you must take oral medication.
