[QUOTE="Benito1234, post: 2278199, member: 352287"] I’ve been T1D for over a decade and never had any problems with insulin losing its potency, a lot of what the consultants, diabetic nurses and dieticians say is absolute nonsense. When I was diagnosed I wasn’t even taught how to carb count, they told me to treat it as if I was T2. Marks right insulin will last longer than a month out the fridge and I agree with the advice he gave to just avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for a prolonged period. If you go to a country where it reaches temperatures of up to 40 degrees C I would personally invest in a cooling pack cause I’ve never been somewhere that hot. Best of luck with your new diagnosis though, anything your not sure about your better off posting on here to find out from experienced diabetics. Advice from our healthcare is useless nine times out of ten [/QUOTE]
