I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble managing your type 1 diabetes since moving to Malaysia. It's very important to seek professional assistance from a healthcare provider as soon as possible to help you better manage your condition. Here are some steps you can take:

1. Find a local endocrinologist or healthcare provider who specializes in diabetes care. They can help assess your current diabetes management plan and make necessary adjustments. This will include lifestyle changes including medication adjustment.

2. Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly and keep a record of your readings. This will help your healthcare provider understand how well your diabetes is controlled and make appropriate treatment recommendations.

3. Review your diet with a dietitian familiar with diabetes management. They can help you make healthier food choices that align with your diabetes management plan that has been drawn up by your doctor.

4. Make sure you have a sufficient supply of insulin and other necessary medications to manage your diabetes. If you're running low on supplies, seek assistance from your healthcare provider or local pharmacy. In terms of insulin storage the pharmacist can assist you in the optimum conditions needed to keep your insulin stable.

5. Stay physically active and maintain a healthy lifestyle as much as possible. Regular exercise can improve blood sugar control and overall health.

Remember, managing type 1 diabetes can be challenging, especially when adjusting to a new environment. Seeking help from healthcare professionals will ensure that you receive the proper guidance and support to help you better control your diabetes.

Thank you,
