Voyage au Québec avec un enfant diabétique

This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Original post
bonjour,
nous envisageons de retourner au Quebec, sauf que depuis notre premier voyage, notre fils de 6 ans a été diagnostiqué diabétique type 1.
donc questions aux diabétiques et parents d'enfants diabétiques, comment vous êtes vous organisés vous les balades, parcs, restos...? réassort de cartouche d'insuline en pharma?
mon fils est sous stylos pour l'instant mais il est possible qu'il passe sous pompe
merci
merci
Lors de l'un de no séjours au Quebec nous avions rencontré un couple un soir dans un gite dont la madame était diabétique, et elle avait amenée avec elle tout son traitement pour le séjour , je suppose que tu doit pouvoir faire pareil avec ton fils et pour ce qui est des balades en tous cas elle avait fait sans probleme celles ou nous étions qui était la visite d'une cabane a sucre et une balade en foret avec un guide indien qui n'étaient pas très difficile, toutefois elle nous avait dit que elle avait choisi de ne faire que des petites balades dans les parcs qu'elle avait visitée, et a priori elle avait bien contente de son voyage , il y a pas de raison que pour vous cela soit différent, en tous cas je vous le souhaite
Fabienne
merci pour ta réponse!
ps: je suis d'orange ;-)
Bonjour,
A priori pour ce qui est des balades il n'y a pas de raisons que ce soit différent au Québec, organisez vous comme ici.Je pense qu'il serait judicieux de toujours avoir ( y compris pour le voyage en avion) avec vous de quoi compenser une éventuelle hypo ou de pallier à un repas manqué ou retardé. Prenez assez de gâteau secs ou autre chose que votre fils apprécie avec vous.
Pour tout le matériel, demandez un certificat justificatif à votre diabétologue. Ayez tout en cabine, rien en soute. Prenez en plus que nécessaire( stylos, aiguilles et tests) , et si votre fils passe sous pompe ayez aussi plus de cartouches de rechange. je vous conseillerais aussi, s'il est sous pompe, de partir avec des stylos en plus, au cas où il y ait un souci avec la pompe, surtout si vous êtes débutants avec l'engin au moment du voyage.Je ne sais pas à quelle fréquence vous faites les contrôles de glycémies, lors d'un dépaysement il est conseillé d'en faire un peu plus fréquemment afin de voir si le changement a une répercussion sur le diabète. Pensez aussi éventuellement à une pochette isotherme pour ranger l'insuline.
Je n'aurai pas le temps...
Bonjour,
Je ne sais pas si vous avez pu obtenir des réponses concrètes à vos questions. Si certaines subsistent, je suis diabétique et voyage régulièrement. Si vous avez des questions, n'hésitez pas !

Bonjour
je suis diabétique , je vais au Quebec au mois de Juin. Je voyage un peu partout en Europe et dans le monde. Je n'ai jamais eu de soucis, il suffit d’amener son traitement pour la durée du séjour, voir un peu plus par sécurité, il n'y a pas de raison de s'inquiéter d'autant que le canada est un pays très moderne, en cas de soucis il y a tout ce qu'il faut et le Quebec est francophone

merci a vous pour vos réponses
en plus du diabète, voila 2 semaines environ que nous avons découvert que mon fils est allergique a la protéine de lait de vache, au blanc d’œuf et a la moutarde...donc va falloir en plus planifier tout ca, ca se complique pour les restos et repas en extérieur
pour en revenir au diabète, mon fils est sous stylo, comment faites vous avec le décalage horaire?
pour en revenir au diabète, mon fils est sous stylo, comment faites vous avec le décalage horaire?
Je suis également sous insuline avec un stylo. je me pique tous les matins, je garde les mêmes habitudes y compris avec décalage horaire, mais je surveille ma glycémie un peu plus.
Le mieux est d'en parler au diabétologue qui pourra peut être ajuster le traitement en fonction de ça, mais il faut vivre normalement ( ou le plus possible ) avec le diabète.
Par contre, il faut faire attention parce que selon des amis qui sont allé souvent là bas, le sirop d’érable coule à flot le sucre est très présent donc à surveiller😉
Bon séjour malgré tout

Salut,
Je ne suis ni diabétique ni allergique mais comme j'habite au Québec je vais te donner quelques petits ''points''. Sache que les pharmacies se trouvent habituellement au sein des ''magasins'' Pharmarprix ou Jean Coutu. En ville tu trouveras ces bannières très facilement et les pharmaciens pourront te conseiller si besoin. En région, les bannières Pharmaprix et Jean Coutu se retrouvent moins dans les villages, cependant il y a souvent une pharmacie (toujours dans un ''magasin''). DIsons que tu ne verras pas de Pharmacie comme tu les connais en France!! (Pharmacie seule dans un batiment)
Pour ce qui est de l'allergie, c'est commun ici donc les restaurants ont l'habitude de ''dealer'' avec des problèmes d'allergie!! Il te ''suffira'' de préciser le type d'allergie au serveur et il devrait pouvoir t'accomoder!!
Bonne préparation et surtout bon séjour!

Bonjour
Peux tu me confirmer que le sucre et le sirop d’érable coule à flot comme on le pretend ici ou est ce que c'est une légende et que les plats ne sont pas trop sucrés en general?

Philippe
salut,
COncernant le sirop d'érable, il coule plutôt au temps des sucres, à savoir Mi Mars-Mi Avril 😛
Pour ce qui est du sucre, n'oublions pas que nous sommes en Amérique du Nord, certes pas aux USA mais quand même....
Maintenant si tu évites les sodas (au passage un ptit tour dans un supermarché est toujours intéressant pour un touriste....ne serait ce que pour comparer la taille des rayons Chips et Sodas par rapport à ceux d'Europe 🤪), tout ira bien!!
"Homme libre, toujours tu chériras la mer" (Baudelaire)
merci de ces renseignements
j'irais dans les supermarchés regarder ça, mais diabète oblige, je ferai attention même si je ne m'interdit quelques petits écarts 🙂
J'imagine qu'il y a beaucoup d'autres choses délicieuses à tester lors de notre voyage
Philippe
Bonjour,
Je suis sous pompe et ai toujours voyagé avec. Donc j'avoue ne pas trop savoir comment gérer les injections au stylo.
Pour la rapide ça ne posera pas trop de problème, il faut conserver les injections avant les repas. Pour la lente ça nécessite sûrement une petite gymnastique à laquelle je me suis pas habituée étant sous pompe.
L'AJD propose une fiche explicative: http://www.ajd-diabete.fr/le-diabete/vivre-avec-le-diabete/les-voyages/#Decalage_horaire
Vous pouvez voir ce qu'ils expliquent mais dans tous les cas je demanderais conseil au diabéto de votre fils.
Les deux premiers jours il faudra sûrement faire un peu plus de contrôles glycémiques pour être sûr que la transition se soit bien passée.

merci a tous pour vos réponses!! 😉
effectivement, nous étions venus en 2007 au Qc et avions été surpris des pharmacies!
nous resterons dans des grandes villes a priori, Quebec, Sherbrooke, Trois-Rivières et peut être Montréal ( c'est la ville ou j'avais eu du mal, j’étouffais)
et je pense que mon fils va passer sous pompe, nous avons rdv chez sa diabeto le 6 mars, je vais voir avec elle. on en avait parlé une premiere fois, il avait eu un essai "a vide" mais la tubulure n’était pas évidente pendant les jeux, alors on commence a se renseigner sur l'omnipod
nous revenons du ski, et il a fait pas mal d'hyper, malgré du ski, du snow, je pense que l'adrénaline y a bcp fait, et au stylo pas tjs évident aussi pour des goûters un peu plus sucrés
ca sera surement plus facile pour les voyages aussi

Hi there,
I’m planning a trip to Japan next year and I have asthma...
I wanted to know about the regulations regarding Ventolin (Salbutamol) in Japan—is it considered a drug? Can I bring my inhaler with me, or do I need to buy a similar product in Japan?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Hi everyone!
I have two American cousins. The older one was born in Paris, and his sister was born in California. The latter is planning a trip to Paris this summer, but she recently fell ill, and American doctors don’t know what’s wrong. I had the idea of letting her take advantage of her trip to get treated here, avoiding the high healthcare costs of the American system in the process. The problem is, I can’t find anything online about this—just testimonials from French people who used to be American, but nothing for a simple tourist.
Could you shed some light on this for me?
Thanks in advance.

We’re planning a trip to the Philippines from April 22 to May 8, 2026. Flight from Geneva with a layover in Turkey and Manila. Our itinerary: Angeles – Busuanga – Palawan…
The Philippines are a dream destination, but is it possible to travel there safely? I’ve heard that checked luggage often gets lost, tap water isn’t safe to drink, and mosquitoes are everywhere.
For water, what’s the best solution to carry in a backpack? Is a filtering water bottle 100% reliable?
For mosquitoes, should we treat our clothes with repellent? Are you vaccinated against hepatitis A, malaria, or dengue? Or is there an oral treatment to take?
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi there,
Does anyone know if there’s travel insurance for someone who’s had a heart attack?
I can’t find an insurer that covers a pre-existing condition, even if it’s stable.
Thanks so much!
Hi everyone, next month my wife, our 6-year-old daughter, and I are flying to Thailand. It’ll be a great chance to soak up some sun—something we’ve been missing lately here in France! But speaking of sun, I burn easily, and our daughter even more so. I was wondering what SPF to get for sunscreen and whether it’s better to buy it there or before we leave? Thanks for your tips!
Hello,
We’re planning to spend 3 months in Madagascar starting in mid-February.
Areas: Mahajanga, Tulear, Diego Suarez, and Sainte Marie—the order isn’t set yet. We’ll either drive for part of the trip or take flights.
We’ve heard all sorts of things about required vaccines and medications (is anti-malarial mandatory?). What’s the exact situation for travelers?
I’ll come back to you for other topics (like finding a reliable driver, among others).
Thank you.
Best wishes to you all,
Nicole
We're about to go on an organized trip to South Africa, including Kruger Park. We were told that Malarone should preferably be taken in the evening at the same time during a meal. But it's hard to know what time we'll have dinner, especially since I've read that in South Africa, dinner is usually around 6 PM.
I'd love to hear from people who've been on organized trips to this destination and could share their experience. We were thinking of taking Malarone around 7:30 PM, assuming dinner would be closer to 7 PM than 6 PM. Also, if the meal ends up being earlier or later than when we take the pill, would a cookie or a piece of bread be enough to take with Malarone?
Thanks for your replies!

Hi everyone,
I’m planning to set off on a "round-the-world" trip/long journey at the start of next year, lasting between 4.5 and 6 months. For now, the itinerary looks like this: South Korea (2 weeks) -> Japan (1 month) -> New Zealand (1 month) -> Argentina (1 month) -> United States (1 month).
I’m on medication (paroxetine 20 mg/day) and was hoping to bring enough for the entire trip so I wouldn’t have to find a doctor on the spot, deal with a molecule that might be slightly different from what’s available in France, or wonder if that’s even a possibility. Basically, it seemed simpler on paper...
But after looking into the regulations for each country, it’s suddenly way less simple . Many seem to only allow the amount corresponding to the length of your "stay" in the country... Which is a problem if I arrive in Korea with 4.5 months’ worth of medication, for example.
After all that, and even though I’ll obviously contact the relevant authorities in each country (fingers crossed for a response 😛), here’s my question: Has anyone here had any experience with this? (Even if it’s a different medication or different countries, any input would be helpful!)
Thanks in advance! 😉 Ananasas

Hi there,
I’m trying to plan a trip to Dubai with my mom. I’ve seen that some of our medications require prior authorization (sleeping pills, codeine, anti-anxiety meds, etc.).
I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been in our situation. A friend of mine applied to bring her tramadol, but it was denied—though she needed high doses!
Has anyone here gone through this process? Do we *really* need a prescription in English?
Thanks

Hi,
We just found out my wife is pregnant, and we’ve planned a trip to the Barlavento Islands in Cape Verde this November.
We’d like to know if there’s a real risk of Zika contamination on those islands, because from what we’ve found online, the recorded cases are old and come from the Sotavento Islands.
We’re thinking about canceling our trip.
If you’ve recently traveled to Cape Verde or live there, do you have any thoughts on this?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I’m starting a new discussion on this topic since there doesn’t seem to be a recent one.
I have several chronic conditions (including asthma and related ones), and I’m planning to travel for a year across different countries.
Generally, I understand it’s possible to travel with approved medications (which should be my case), but often with a limit of 3 months’ worth of treatment.
Since I’m going for 12 months, that means for three-quarters of my trip, I’d have more than 3 months’ worth of medication.
I plan to bring my prescriptions with the INN (International Nonproprietary Name), as well as the original packaging (even though it’s a nightmare, but from what I understand, it’s necessary). But I’m not sure if that’s enough...
Have any of you been in this situation before? How does it work at customs—do I need to declare everything that exceeds the 3-month limit? Do I need a letter from my doctors?
Thanks in advance for your replies,
See you soon, Bruno

Hi there,
I’ve already visited quite a few countries across several continents, but I’m pretty new to Asia.
I’m planning a trip to Thailand in October or November, and I wanted to check about health precautions: malaria treatment, vaccinations (hepatitis A or others...). I’ll mostly be in the northern region, around Chiang Mai, where I’ll spend a lot of time in nature and the mountains. Then I’ll head south to Phuket or Krabi and visit Khao Sok National Park. I’ll finish up in Bangkok, with a likely detour to Kanchanaburi.
From what I understand, for a stay of less than 60 days, I don’t need a visa (I’m a French national)? I just need to fill out the TDAC form 3 to 5 days before arrival?
Thanks for your advice! Fred

Hi there! So, I'm hesitating about taking a long trip. I'd like to go away for 2 to 3 months and travel across several continents. I’d love some advice. I often have unexplained allergies and need to follow a daily treatment for my diabetes (insulin). I think I can get authorization from my doctor to travel for 6 months with the treatment—is that correct? After those 6 months, is it possible (instead of bothering a relative to send the medication) to see a foreign doctor to get another 6-month travel authorization? How does it work at the airport? Do I need just one medication transport authorization, or do I have to request a new one in each country (once the treatment runs out) for both the flight and a DCI? Also, travel insurance doesn’t cover chronic illnesses, so will I have to pay for foreign consultations out of pocket? I’m not sure if I explained myself clearly. Oh, and just to repeat—travel insurance doesn’t cover chronic illnesses, so foreign consultations will be at my own expense? Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi everyone.
After years of traveling to the USA without any medical insurance subscriptions—and luckily never having any major health issues (though I did get a scorpion sting buried in the sand at CBSouth, 😇)—life has caught up with us, and we’re now being forced into "wisdom" and leaving our carefree days behind.
So, I’m looking for the best compromise for a 2-month health insurance plan. I’ve read the discussions on this topic, but the most recent one is from last year, and I’d love your take on the current situation. I’m familiar with the usual options like Europ Assistance and AXA, but I’ve just discovered Chapka and Heymondo (the latter seems interesting in terms of both price and coverage).
What do you think of these last two? How do they compare in terms of value for money against the bigger companies?
Thanks in advance, everyone.

Hi,
We’ve planned a 3-week trip to Bali this summer with our 7-year-old daughter. The itinerary includes Sanur, Nusa Lembongan, Sidemen, Amed, and Ubud. The more time passes, the more we read about people getting sick—some with mild to severe traveler’s diarrhea, and many ending up in the hospital. We, as parents, have been through it in Egypt with pretty bad cases, but we’d really like to avoid that for our daughter. Even though there’s no zero risk, and we’ll be careful, can any of you reassure me? Not everyone got sick, right? I’d love to hear positive feedback from parents, but not just them 😊. Thanks in advance!
Hi there...
I’m traveling with a friend for a month in November.
We booked our round-trip tickets from Paris to Phnom Penh, and yes, I know—it was a mistake. We should’ve flown out of Laos, but here we are.
But is it doable to backpack through both countries in a relaxed way?
I’ve seen that the transport takes a while...
Thanks so much for your replies.
Hi there,
I’ve started looking into getting dental implants, possibly in Costa Rica or Mexico.
Do you have any clinics to recommend or ones I should avoid?
For the next steps, I need to choose between Cuba Medika or Medigo—these are agencies that help with medical procedures. Do you have any info on either of them?
Thanks so much for your help!

For several years now, increased aggression has been observed in Cape fur seals.
At least 70 unprovoked attacks on humans.
It was recently confirmed that this is due to rabies.
The suspected origin is contamination in Namibia by jackals.
The contagion seems to be spreading.
Preventive vaccination (of the animals) is being considered.
Just a reminder:
Rabies affects all mammals.
Once symptoms appear—sometimes weeks or even months later—death is inevitable.
It’s the bite that transmits the disease.
There are so-called "furious" forms with aggression, but also forms without aggression.
In case of a bite, in addition to standard wound care, tetanus prevention… rabies prevention is essential.
Stay careful out there…
Seeing seals from a boat along the coast isn’t rare in these parts…

Hello,
I’m looking for a dentist who can do a full lower-arch implant with a complete prosthesis. I’m in Quebec and available to travel to Cuba. Need full contact details. Thanks everyone!
Hi there,
My current plan is to get my teeth treated in Cuba, especially for dental implants. Has anyone here had experience and could refer me to a good, affordable dentist? I’d really appreciate it if you could give me an idea of the price for one implant, since I need at least 6 done. Thanks so much!
