What do diabetics have to expect at the security checks? What should diabetics do, who need to inject insulin and are dependent on the appropriate instruments?
Getting on a plane in Singapore at 6 in the evening and arriving in Aberdeen some 2 hours later (all times local) after a 10-hour flight is nothing special to the average business traveller. And also people going on long-distance holidays frequently are quite used to adjusting their wristwatch with a few turns.
Can I travel long time, eventually even to far-away countries, with diabetes?
Apart from the "normal" preparations that you have to make before going abroad, like making sure you've got an extra injection pen, or supply parts for your insulin pump just in case something gets broken, there are a few things about the German health care system you should know about.
A journey to far away countries is most of the times very interesting. You can see lots of new things or get to know foreign cultures and you can simply escape your every day life for a while. It's nice to take your time for a walk through a foreign town. But mostly a business trip is something completely different.
Nationally as well as internationally speaking Germany is an important country for fairs. Not only diabetics ask themselves questions like these before visiting a fair.
