Yeah, getting caught out somewhere without snacks and a looming hypo is one of my nightmares. I try to always, always, always have snacks on me (for a diabetic, this is even more important to have when you leave the house than your keys or wallet), but sometimes things happen, and you end up somewhere without anything. It's really scary, but the good news is that if there is anybody around, enough people understand at least enough about diabetes to give you something to eat if you start saying "I'm having a diabetic emergency, does anyone have anything with sugar?"
The scary part is potentially getting caught out somewhere entirely alone and without an emergency snack.
