Here's a checklist based on one that I use for travel:

Humalog pen (or vial)
Lantus pen (or vial)
Lansing device
Test strips
alcohol preps
Lancets
Meter
Back up meter
pen needles (or syringes - if that is how you do shots)
batteries for meter

Back ups for everything

Hope this helps,

Maurie

It does, thanks. We have had to cancel this surgery 4 times; he gets sick each and every time. He ended up in ICU the night before last time.

Agree with Maurie's list, but i want to emphasize backups for everything. I would bring at LEAST double what you think you'll need. If there's no refrigerator available, bring a small cooler too.
