it feels like party time 1) reading Loke 's comment about loyalty points and the GOOD news about insulin pumps for type 1 Albertans http://www.newswire.ca/en/story/1125947/government-funds-insulin-pu...

Hi Sylvie ...this may not have been related to Apidra ...I also posted this in the Apidra Group July 2011 , but I had an infection , which my GP had to lance .My pump Nurse agreed back then , it could have been my body , not the Apidra and did not use it long enough to become totally enthralled ...did I spell this correctly ?? ...another reason to hate diabetes and now I have a low ...:(
