diabetes in Aus
Can anyone provide some info on cost of diabetic supplies and what type of insulin is used.
My son is 13 and was diagnosed 3 years ago with Type I. We are coming to Queensland (Brisbane) for a 5 week rekkie, hoping to move there next April. We are coming to have our visas stamped! Very exciting times.
My only concern is that my son will have access to the same type of analogue insulin he gets in the uk. This is Levimir and Novorapid made by Novo Nordisk.
Can anyone direct me to a good site to check this out...
Many Thanks
