[Diabetes-Talk] Insulin Pump and the Beach/Swimming?

[Eileen Scrivani]

Do you think if a cooler will be around and if its in a plastic baggie, would that be any better, or too cool to keep it in while I’m in the water?

Thanks.

I place it in my bag under a towel or clothing so it's out of the sun.

Hi all,

Just wondering for the ladies on list who use an insulin pump what if any thing special do you do with your insulin pump when you go to the beach or swimming? I know it can’t go in the water, but am uncertain where to keep it when I need to disconnect. I don’t want to just leave it & the insulin baking in the sun.

Thanks for any tips.

Eileen
