[QUOTE="Dennis, post: 70898, member: 1338"] Hi Mike, I don't think you should cancel the holiday - for 2 reasons. Firstly your insurance is unlikely to pay out on the basis that your cancellation is because you think you might not enjoy yourself. Secondly you have diabetes, not a death sentence!! Millions of diabetics go on holiday and have exactly the same enjoyable experience as non-diabetics. You are probably thinking along the lines that I must restrict what I eat (as in type 2) and so can't enjoy myself. You are very new to being a type 1 but between now and September you will have learned how to use your insulin to control the blood sugar resulting from what you eat, rather than having to control what you eat. That may mean taking higher insulin doses while you are away, then returning to normal when you get back. I'm sure you will get plenty of tips from our experienced and well travelled type 1s.
