Hi I have been a type 2 diabetic for over 12 years now and have very recently started on Insulin, my question is what can I do to look after my Insulin while touring and stopping in hotels. We are planning. Two week trip to the south of France and back next year and am wondering what to do about storing my Insulin ?

Hi @CharlieG ,
Most of us use the Frio Insulin Wallet. You 'charge' it by placing it in water and the crystals inside it expand and keep your insulin cool. Each charge can last several days and it's easy to stick it in the sink at your hotel if you need to.
Easily available on Amazon and maybe even from this website, haven't checked. Hope that helps.
