Question for American women living in Brazil

6 years ago
I am a senior citizen woman who is planning a lengthy trip to Brazil for later this year. I have some questions of a personal nature about some medical supplies that I will need. I need to know if I will be able to easily find them in Brazil or if I need to take them with me.

If you are a woman is is willing to contact me personally, let me know. if we can correspond outside of the forum as I don't want to broadcast this to the entire group. On your part, you would just need to check the next time you shop at a farmacia to see if certain items are available and then get back to me.

I lived in Brazil in my early 20s (late 1960s) and visited in 2011, but at that time, I didn't need these medical products, so didn't look to see if they were available.

I could write to my Brazilian friends, but I prefer not to spread my personal business to them.

Thanking you in advance.
