[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2587066, member: 372717"] Hi and welcome to the forums. I moved to Australia on my husband's work visa with no T1 issues. When we upgraded to permanent visas I had to have a medical, and (maybe because of my age and length of time with T1 and the fact I was on blood pressure tablets) they made me have a report from a heart specialist. (They also made us have AIDS tests and yet another chest xray, though I think that was only for the adults). I would hope that childhood T1 wouldn't cause any issues, but stress that my experience was as a long term adult T1 with reasonable but far from perfect diabetic control. (And it was 20 years ago).
