My consultant explained the very small risk of pancreatitis to me very well and also said that diabetics are more prone to this condition anyway so those who got it may have got it anyway with nothing to do with the drug. She also explained that some people were given the drug in USA who were not really suitable candidates. So I am not worried about the small risk at all and for me the fantastic results so far outweigh any risk. Anyway son is on his way with the precious cargo in his hand luggage. Husband has spent the morning quizzing pharmacists, 1 said it was ok for 24 hours and the rest said bin it. I shall have to be very careful in future. I reckon because this jab actually hurt a lot and I was trying to keep it in for 6 seconds maybe I did let go of the button too soon. Getting a frio bag proved to be a pain with hardly anyone having one in stock so I owe my hubby and son big time for this.My holiday seems to have started with a couple of disasters, I also felt ill during the night and have got a really nasty boil and swollen glands. I am a bit prone to them and it seems it started after an infection picked up in the hospital after childbirth - 23 years ago!. Anyway I always carry penicillin so have started taking that. I'm amazed it has happened as BG is fantastic now and even with this infection is coming up around 4.8 before meals so that is comforting. The mediterranean diet really suits me.Anyway I have had a lovely day swimming and lazing about. Off for a harbour side fish meal later with a crowd of girlfriends and my son and his 2 friends will arrive during the night.</blockquote>
