    You will be fine :) I test mine more often due to being more active and getting nervous when flying haha. I think you can take food in your suitcase, but you can buy it in the airport anyway. Also, I keep my glucose tablets with me on the plane just in case :)

    3 week old Type 1

    Hi, I've been type 1 for 5 years and I felt I was alone too. I came across this forum on Facebook only a few weeks ago and wish I had been on here from the start. You're not alone though and there will always be someone there to help. Good luck! :)

    Pump or injections

    Speaking from experience, the pump is better for me. You could always try it and if doesn't work out, go back to the injections. Good luck! :)
