During the last years we have travelled extensively by land in our beloved Land Cruiser – climbing mountains and doing other activities along the route. And all this I have done, without any problems, having had diabetes type 1 for 63 years.
I will not elaborate beyond simply stating – as I have in the past – that yes you can!
I am by now literally living evidence that you can live a long and active life and do whatever you want – with a well-regulated type 1 diabetes. Personally, I use a MiniMed 780g insulin pump with a sensor – for my lifestyle and activities this combo works well. But whichever system you use – Yes you can!
As a matter of fact, I would not even have added these final thoughts had it not been for my super navigator and partner reminding me to do so – I simply did not think about it (the diabetes) … 😊.
