I have just retired and I am have been looking at properties in Spain and Portugal as I am thinking of moving there permanently ot at least until I'm unable to continue to live there alone.
I was diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes over 10 years ago and have asthma and I was wondering how I would go about getting the meds test strips and inhalers I'm told I need over there. How to go about getting access to the Spanish or Portuguese Health Service.
Of course I realise that all the afore mentioned might (and probably will) incur costs but what kind of figures are we talking about?
If anyone is well informed about these concerns and is able to bring me up to speed I would be most appreciative.
thanks
