ARGH!

Airline's medicine ban leaves passenger in coma - 01 Nov 2006 - Health & fitness

My biggest question -- did the insulin freeze? And is it still good?

A diabetic man fell into a coma because airport staff refused to let him take his insulin on board a flight from Auckland to Christchurch.

My biggest question is how did a half hour flight make him go comatose? I can take my pump off for a half hour and not hit 200 with no long acting insulin on board.
