If I keep a UV sterilizing light on diabetes supplies (excluding insulin) would it cause any issues?
I will be moving out for college soon and I will be locking my diabetes supplies up, in a cabinet for multiple reasons parties, people going through my stuff, gross apartments etc you never know . So my question is if I were to place a UV sterilization light inside the cabinet with the supplies such as insertion sites, syringes etc would that cause any trouble with any of the supplies? Im trying to prevent bacteria or mold as well as and insects nasty apartments from growing inside the cabinet, and living in Florida doesn't help with the hot temperatures, as well as it being dark inside the cabinet. And I should probably mention that I WILL NOT be keeping insulin in this.The light would just be on for a couple of hours a day so it wouldn't get too hot in the cabinet. Also if anyone has any other suggestions for keeping my supplies " clean" please let me know.

Reusing diabetes supplies?
Just wondering if the diabetics on here use a new lancet every time you test your blood glucose? How about syringes? Will you use them more than once? If you do use lancets and or syringes more than once, how long do you use them before switching to a new one?Now Jim, I take the universal precautions class annually. I know in order for me to get hepatitis, I have to use a syringe or lancet that has blood with the hepatitis virus on it. Since I'm only reusing my OWN syringes or lancets, and I don't have hepatitis virus, I cannot get it from myself.

How do I afford my diabetes supplies with no insurance?
There has GOT to be some kind of program for students who have diabetes and go to school full time. I am not going to a regular university so they dont have medical aid. Theres no way in hell I can afford $150 a month for insulin and $200 a month for test strips or any of that. I was thinking about the everyone benefits program but that only pays a small percentage of the cost. Are poor diabetics just meant to fall over and die or what? I do not think so What do all you other no insurance diabetics do out there to afford your supplies, any one know of anything at ALL that would help me?
