[QUOTE="stoney, post: 535761, member: 22612"] Hi Everyone. A long time since I have been on here and also like the new layout. James has now been transferred to the Adult side of the Diabetic Clinic and we had a meeting with the Paediatric Consultant and Adult Consultant and 6 other people. Introducing us to them and vice versa. I felt so out of my comfort zone having been with the Paediatric team for 14 1/2 years. As we will be going with James to Lanzarote in July, from what I can gather from other posts it seem it is ok to keep his pump on going through security. I did ask the DSN this question but not quite sure what she meant when she mentioned Bluetooth. She did say that he did not have to take his pump off going through security but needs to switch the Bluetooth off. Does she mean just before take off like you would switch mobiles, ipads etc off, then whilst you are up in the air and you can release your seat belts, you can put it back on.. We are going back to see her once more on 2nd July to also pick up a letter regarding his pump, but would also like to know from others who have flown with their pump. I must admit I am a bit nervous about going abroad this time, as we have been so used to MDI's in the past and also since using the pump, I have forgotten the MDI's procedure and know we have to take all the bits to do with MDI's should the pump fail. James seems confident so that's the main thing. Sorry I have rambled a bit, but my main concern is the Bluetooth question. Cheers Yvonneo_O [/QUOTE]
