So what regular medications are you on and what is the cost of the travel / repatriation insurance
ACE inhibitors , pre diabetic medication, prostrate?
Then reset the question
No seriously!
Just doing some research for a presentation and one question is the effect of empaglifozin (commonly prescribed pre diabetic medication) and severe side effects when dehydrated ( read seasick) that require immediate hospitalisation
same goes for ace inhibitors when dehydrated although side effect not as severe
Getting old sucks!
Exactly - Be wary if overseas on meds,as jnsurance/repatriation for existing condition ? = Mega $ ,and do due diligence to ensure that they have effective evacuation plan,to get you Home !
Do not be left on the mountain,like the old mate in Katmandhu,where altitude sickness caused another heart attack - will not do it again !
