Hello!

I want to travel through Costa Rica and I would like to know the experience of other diabetics: what do they carry on the road, how do they prepare and with what do they supply?

Because apart from the glucometer, the wound healing cream and the phytocomplex for diabastic diafastics, I have not prepared anything, and soon I have to leave.

Thank you!

Thank you @ruthbia, blastoestimulin if I knew her, but I had it more like an antibiotic cream, I also want it for friction or small abrasions of when you rub and your skin goes.I do not know why demons, despite disinfecting chlorhexidine and washing with soap it takes me to cure and they get reddish as if they will infected and then leave me brand.As much as you take care of every day that passes something new is derived from diabetes and that is inevitable.
