I am ready to start my traveling adventures. I have decided to start big. i am takeing my first job teaching English in China. While I am very excited about teaching and going to China I am having a lot of problems finding out if I can get Insulin in China. I am a type I diabetic and will be teaching for a year. I need to be able to get insulin for a year what would be the best way to get medican in China? I have heard so many contradictory things. Some people say China has a very third world medical system others say its fine depending on where you are. Someone even suggested I contact the red cross. If any one has ever spent extended period of time in China and had success in getting medicane would love to know how to do it. Any information is helpful. Reply to this

If you plan to travel to China and stay here for teaching, you can try to consult some Chinese or contact me at travel@sunnysanya.com. You are mostly welcome to send me email. Reply to this

depending on where you are. If in Shanghai, Beijing, GUangzhou, Shenzhen or other big cities, it is easy to get what you need.
in fact, Shanghai and Beijing is of high living standard, maybe similar as middle city of America.
You know, I've been to Vietnam and Iran, which is poorer than China. There is no problem of public health. Reply to this
