Embodiments of the invention relate to a self-contained kit for medical condition monitoring and maintenance, such as the monitoring and maintenance of blood sugar levels. The kit is compact and includes components structurally retained therein for use without removal, wherein these components are normally separate and loose. Such components could include a glucose meter, an insulin pen and a lancing apparatus. Other embodiments of the invention relate to a computer system and method for monitoring a medical condition, monitoring a medical condition over time, correlating recorded results with environmental factors such as location, time and meals consumed. A method may also enable individual users to share information to provide support to one another.

1. A method performed by a computer program operating on a computer device that is a smartphone, the method comprising: (a) displaying, by the computer device, on a display screen in communication with the computer device, a plurality of icons related to managing a medical condition, wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises a community tracker window which, upon selection by the user, shows the activity of other people in a community of which the user is a member, including a leaderboard showing points earned and lost by the user and other people in the user's community, the point associated with blood glucose levels of the user and other people in the user's community, and wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises an activity challenge window which, upon selection by the user, displays a periodically updated activity to challenge the user;(b) receiving, by the computer device, information relating to the medical condition;(c) in response to receiving the information, automatically populating, by the computer device, one or more of the plurality of icons with the received information;(d) displaying, by the computer device, the one or more newly populated icons;(e) displaying, by the computer device, a color coded display for a plurality of pairings of meal data and a blood glucose level for a plurality of geographic locations;(f) acquiring, by a digital camera of the computer device, a digital image of a street at the current physical location of the smartphone, the digital image of the street having a first restaurant and a second restaurant visible in the digital image;(g) calculating, by the computer device, an average blood sugar level of the user at the first restaurant and an average blood sugar level of the user at the second restaurant;(h) modifying, by the computer device, the digital image of the street a first time by inserting the average blood sugar of the user at the first restaurant onto a portion of the digital image of the street occupied by the first restaurant;(i) modifying, by the computer device, the digital image of the street a second time by inserting the average blood sugar of the user at the second restaurant onto a portion of the digital image of the street occupied by the second restaurant; and(j) displaying, on the display screen, the modified digital image of the street to allow the user to view the users average blood sugar results at the first restaurant and the second restaurant. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of receiving information relating to the medical condition comprises: (a) receiving, by the computer device, information from an external device in communication with the computer device, wherein the information is relating to the medical condition. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: (a) displaying, by the computer device, a blood glucose level of a blood test for a user;(b) updating, by the computer device, the blood glucose level in response to a new blood test for the user; and(c) in response to the updating of the blood glucose level, displaying, by the computer device, the updated blood glucose level. 4. The method of claim 3, further comprising the step of receiving, by the computer device, data for the new blood test from an external device in communication with the computer device. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: (a) displaying, by the computer device, a plurality of blood glucose levels for the user, wherein the plurality of blood glucose levels are from past blood tests for the user; and(b) displaying, by the computer device, one or more target lines for desired levels of blood glucose. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises a glucose tracking window. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises a location update window which, upon selection by the user, shows the user's average glucose level at various restaurants previously visited by the user. 8. The method of claim 7, further comprising displaying, on the display screen, and responsive to the user entering a restaurant displayed on the location update window where the user's average glucose level was high, a colored background to alert the user of past poor diabetic management associated with the restaurant. 9. The method of claim 1, further comprising: (f) displaying, on the display screen, an image acquired from a camera of the computer device; and(g) annotating, on the displayed image, a location associated with one of the plurality of pairings of meal data and a blood glucose level. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the colored background is red. 11. A method performed by a computer program operating on a computer device, the method comprising: (a) displaying, by the computer device, on a display screen in communication with the computer device, a plurality of icons related to managing a medical condition, wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises a community tracker window which, upon selection by the user, shows the activity of other people in a community of which the user is a member, including a leaderboard showing points earned and lost by the user and other people in the user's community, the point associated with blood glucose levels of the user and other people in the user's community, and wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises an activity challenge window which, upon selection by the user, displays a periodically updated activity to challenge the user;(b) receiving, by the computer device, information relating to the medical condition;(c) in response to receiving the information, automatically populating, by the computer device, one or more of the plurality of icons with the received information;(d) displaying, by the computer device, the one or more newly populated icons;(e) displaying, by the computer device, a color coded display for a plurality of pairings of meal data and a blood glucose level for a plurality of geographic locations;(f) wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises a location update window which, upon selection by the user, shows the user's average glucose level at various restaurants previously visited by the user; and(g) displaying, on the display screen, and responsive to the user entering a restaurant displayed on the location update window where the user's average glucose level was high, a colored background to alert the user of past poor diabetic management associated with the restaurant. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the step of receiving information relating to the medical condition comprises: (a) receiving, by the computer device, information from an external device in communication with the computer device, wherein the information is relating to the medical condition. 13. The method of claim 11, further comprising: (a) displaying, by the computer device, a blood glucose level of a blood test for a user;(b) updating, by the computer device, the blood glucose level in response to a new blood test for the user; and(c) in response to the updating of the blood glucose level, displaying, by the computer device, the updated blood glucose level. 14. The method of claim 13, further comprising the step of receiving, by the computer device, data for the new blood test from an external device in communication with the computer device. 15. The method of claim 11, further comprising: (a) displaying, by the computer device, a plurality of blood glucose levels for the user, wherein the plurality of blood glucose levels are from past blood tests for the user; and(b) displaying, by the computer device, one or more target lines for desired levels of blood glucose. 16. The method of claim 11, wherein the computer device is a smartphone. 17. The method of claim 11, wherein one of the plurality of icons comprises a glucose tracking window. 18. The method of claim 11, further comprising: (a) displaying, on the display screen, an image acquired from a camera of the computer device; and(b) annotating, on the displayed image, a location associated with one of the plurality of pairings of meal data and a blood glucose level. 19.
