Hello all, I'm off to Budapest in February for a few days, it's the first time I've travelled abroad since my t1 diagnosis.
I have a letter from the hospital stating that I need to carry my supplies with me etc. My main worries are about what to do with the used needles etc? Do I carry a small sharps bin with me and then bring it home? How do I 'guess' my insulin doses while eating foods im not used to (being a Northerner I'm not that cultured with food)?
Or will it be just go with the flow while I'm away?
I have an appointment with my Dr next week and I'm going to mention the Libre and see if I can have a trial of it so I can use it while I'm away, I don't have much hope with getting it though.
Cheers John
