| To declare or not to declare, international travel Hi All
I'm going back to Canada for a visit soon and even though I've travelledmany times before, this time I won't be taking any luggage, just a backpack. Now, I know when at the checking desk the question is asked "are you carrying any sharp objects"? I always say no and just keep my diabetes to myself. I'm wondering though if my backpack is full of syringes and does get searched I may get in trouble for not declaring?. Has anyone had any similar experience?
I find if we (as diabetics) are honest with the "system" this honesty just comes back and bites us in the nose. I don't want to be in the situation where iIve said I have syringes on me and the cabin crew take them off me and say I can ask for them when I need them. I can just imagine this kind of "babying" overreacting behaviour may result if I am honest.
Anyhoo................ |
