For those receiving weekly N Plate injections, how do you handle travel? Specifically, if you want to vacation outside the USA what do you do? Does anyone know if Medicare covers the costs?

If you put this down in the Adults with ITP section you will probably get a response - this section you put it in is for suggestions about the site or complaints about the site!

Unfortunately the powers that be are not monitoring the site so they are not moving threads that dont' belong in this section to a section they belong in.

Why not call medicare and find out if it covers the cost? And I would think you would have to know where to go for the injections, maybe other countries don't have it? I don't know since I don't use it. Good luck!
