Hi , been going abroad since i started using insulin a few years ago but recently changed my doctor and couldn't belive it when first of all after 3 weeks it was not done and then they wanted to charge me for it which the other doctors had never done before . When contacting the health authorities to see if they could do this the health authorities said they was in there rights to charge me and said they could charge me up to £ 50 for writing a letter which i think is totaly outragous has anyone who goes abroad and takes there insulin with them knows they must take it in there hand - luggage and not in there main baggage and with the new security measures must take a letter to prove they are diabetic and use insulin . does anyone else think this is an un-nesasery charge and thinks like me that the doctors are taking advantage of somebodies misfortune of being a diabetic or other illneses which you need to take injections for . Thanks
