This card says "I have hyperinsulinism. My body overproduces insulin causing severe, unpredicatable hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose). Signs and symptoms can include:
Changes in behaviour
Weakness/lethargy
Can’t concentrate
Staring/not responding
Confusion
Pale, sweaty, or shaking,
Dizziness
Headaches
Blurred vision
Anxiety
Seizures
Irritability.
I may not show any symptoms! If my blood glugose is below 3.5mmol/l or you notices symptoms, see the back of this card for instructions."
 
The back of the card has a blank sticker that you can write personal information on, like details, key management points, or where to find the detailed management plan and medications. A clear sticker is provided to seal the blank section so it stays neat and readable.
 
This card uses the both mmol/l and mg/dL. We also stock a UK version which only has mmol/L, which can be found here. These cards were created with the Childrens Hyperinsulinism Charity.
 
The cards are 110x80mm, and we sell them ‘pick and mix’ style – choose the cards you want.  You will receive a plain metal split ring with your card(s). This card is compatible with all other Keyring cards and Keyring card accessories on this site.
 
Most are available with striped borders or colour coded plain borders (pale green for ‘I’m Ok’, pale blue for ‘information’, pale orange for ‘I need you to change your behaviour’ or ‘I’m not OK’, and pale purple for ‘I have a specific condition’.)
