I am a Diabetic Type 1, Diagnosed earlier this year, I am good friends with a international circus, and want to perform and live with them and travel, But I'm unsure and scared if it'll affect my diabetes.What should I do?
 
Hi @RaymondJ ,

I've been in an international rock/metal band in the past.
Be sensible with the planning . But don't let diabetes hold you back... It's all "show bizz."
 
Speak to your healthcare team about how insulin supply etc might work, what you would need to know in other countries. Get organised and go for it.

Hi, find out as much information as you can from medical professionals, go online and talk to the circus, possibly another type 1 has performed in the past or is still performing ( which would be very helpful to you) and it may also depend on the type of act you are interested in ?
I wish you all the very best and good luck.
