I've been a type 1 diabetic for 3 years and I'm 22. In March I'm going to be travelling to Asia for 3 months then going onto Australia to do a working visa. I requested 4 months prescription to allow me to sign onto the Australian health care system when I get there and in case of theft or emergencies as my monthly prescription will literally only cover 3 months exactly. However, my doctors surgery have refused to give me anymore than 3 months worth of prescription and told me I Would "have to sort myself out" . Obviously I know there is medication available around the world but as I'll be in rural areas at some parts of my trip I wanted to be extra prepared and am worried they won't have my exact medication etc (especially my Glucomen testing strips). I was just wondered if anyone else has had this problem as I'm super scared about it all and want to enjoy my trip and not worry!
