[QUOTE="Northern Light, post: 52261, member: 9211"] [b]Northern Light[/b] Hi everyone ! And interesting to see this topic. I was diagnosed with diabetes type 1 seven years ago. Another mountain to climb it seemed but sometimes life switches the cards on our hand and we have to make the best of the ones we got. I have learned to live with this and I always try to adapt to my circumstances as I travel throughout. I take 4-5 insulininjections / a day and meassure my bloodsugar before to adjust my doses. I will probably take my insulindoses down a bit while walking , and also in consideration to weatherconditions (if it s warm my body most likely will work more and use more energy ). There are special little coolingbags with microchrystals inside , you put them in water for 10 min. to activate them. Later when they interact with air they function as a fridge would and they last for about 3 days . I have used them before on journeys to store my insulin which is sensitive for temperatures. They are also easy to bring and dont take up a lot of space. I bought them from a swedish company called ROMALORE , they have a site to order from if anyone is interested . Havent walked a camino with my diabetes yet , but found my ways through everything else ! So believe me I will ! Greetings from Marina [/QUOTE]
