My mother has type 2 diabetes and has recently diagnosed with vascular dementia and dementia, she takes insulin and recently has not been able to tell when her blood sugars are low which is very worrying. Is there any thing that we can do to help us and her to know when this is happening apart from doing blood tests all the time?
