Hello,
Not sure if this is in the correct section of the forum but I've done a search of the forum for similar questions and had no results, so here goes!
I'm receiving a pump next week and have recently started looking into moving to Dubai to work (I'm a teacher). It is very very early days so am just doing a lot of reading and researching.
Does anybody on here have any experience of having Type 1 whilst living in Dubai (on a pump), or know anybody who has? Just wanted an idea of the insurance cover, prescription costs, the effect of temperature on insulin etc.
Thank you!
 
wow, my Diabetes is basically the deal breaker for moves out the country like this, even to places like Spain.......

I hope you get the advice your looking for, would be a great opportunity....

Thank you @novorapidboi26 . I'm totally unwilling to let my diabetes stop me from doing anything! The way I see it, there's people with far worse conditions have done crazier things than moving abroad so with plenty of research, discussions with my diabetes team and a bit of common sense I'm hoping it's doable
