ADivabetic replied to NatalieHodge's discussion 'Omnipodders in apidra?'
"I use Apidra in my pod and it works pretty quickly for me as long as I've counted my carbs correctly. I have never used any other fast acting outside of whatever they gave me in the hospital at Dx. I don't recall the name but remembered…"

"I'm sorry you're having such a hard time. I have discovered blood in my pod for the first time today but my numbers aren't too bad so I'm just going to wait until it's time to change it which is really soon. I hope…"

ADivabetic replied to Danielle's discussion 'OmniPod first few days...stories...' in the group OmniPod Users
"The trials of it, especially the lows are a monster. We'll get there! I must say that even with all the changes that have to go on to reach a stable place it's still better than MDI to me!"

ADivabetic commented on plumberpat's blog post 'People thinking diabetics can be normal and that it not a big deal'
"I completely understand what you are saying in this post. I was diagnosed 6 days before my 32nd birthday and though those who care about me try to understand, for instance when I have a severe low in their presence and need fast acting carbs but…"

ADivabetic replied to Nikki K's discussion 'Dating with diabetes' in the group Diabetes and Women
"I've only been using the omnipod for a little over a week but I've worn it on both arms and you are right, people are very interested to know what it is and how it works."

ADivabetic replied to Nikki K's discussion 'Dating with diabetes' in the group Diabetes and Women
"When I was leaving the hospital after being diagnosed the nurse suggested a pump but because I didn't yet know about the ominpod, I declined because I didn't want to be bothered with the tubing. I was diagmosed with type 1 the last week of…"

ADivabetic replied to onelildustbunni's discussion 'IUD?' in the group Diabetes and Women
"My ex-boyfriend used to complain about the string as well. I didn't think about it but the string rubbing could be responsible for the spotting I've been experiencing since having it put in."

ADivabetic replied to onelildustbunni's discussion 'IUD?' in the group Diabetes and Women
"I have a Mirena but got it 4 years before being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I have not seen a problem with my bgl related to the Mirena but have and have pretty much always had longer periods (though lighter) and a lot of spotting since having…"

ADivabetic replied to Danielle's discussion 'OmniPod first few days...stories...' in the group OmniPod Users
"This weekend was a little hard because I didn't have an appetite and because I didn't suspend my basal during that time, I often went low. I also forgot to suspend it when I went dancing which always causes me to go low (urban ballroom…"
