I'm busy planning a 2011 thru hike attempt. I'm an insulin dependent diabetic and take three shots a day. That means three syringes and individualized packaging X 5-6 days that I will need to pack in and pack out. Plus a weekly PO visit to pick replacements. Several folks have told me my medication needs will reduce but I will probably need to start at my current level and it is very unlikely that I could ever come off the meds completely.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a particular brand of syringes that will minimize the packaging leftovers? I'm currently using Monoject.
thanks Cold Kettle
