[QUOTE="Michelle6557, post: 2101852, member: 188099"] Thanks for the replies - follow up question please! Do i need a waterproof liner for a Frío bag when using a junior star pen? It’s a hollow pen to put vials of APIDRA and others in. It seems metallic. Frío simply say to use a liner with metal pens, but I don’t know if it is metal and the liner an extra expense I may not need. Thanks I’m type 1 slow burn (apparently) as I was misdiagnosed as type 2 then they eventually realised that I was type 1. Managed it with low carb, no insulin for 2 years. Anyway, am now on Abasaglar and Apidra and am off on holiday to the sun soon. I’ve just realised that Apidra once in-use should be kept below 25 degrees, whereas Abasaglar is ok up to 30 degrees. What do people do to keep them cool? Do the Frio packs work? Another thing I just thought of is my Aviva BG meter and the mobile cassettes that u need for it. Can you keep these in a Frio pack too? Thanks in advance. I should add that our room has air con but I’ll be heading out and about so need to take insulin with me [/QUOTE]
