Hi all,
I’m traveling to Belgium next week for 5 days, I expect I’ll just need my current open basal/bolus pens for the trip but I’d also want to take spare which I’d like to put back in the fridge when I get home (hope I don’t need it!). However I’d assume but correct me if I’m wrong - it should stay fridge temp during its duration of my travel. With this I’m thinking a frio type product is not suitable and I’ve found a medigenix icool product 2-8degC 12-18hrs which would get me through the travel part until the hotel fridge.
However, I’m aware that it has cool blocks in it, do airports allow this - has anyone got any experience travelling with this product?
Or am I over thinking this?
In addition to this - am I right in thinking that libre2 sensors are ok with metal detectors but not X-ray?
I’ll have to carry a spare sensor box in my hand rather than leave it in my luggage for x-ray scanning in that case.
Sorry lots of questions, it’s my 1st time biz travel since diagnosis
Any help and experience is appreciated,
