Can you use U-500 with OmniPod while your pregnant? 32 weeks pregnant and I'm using about 140 units of Humalog a day to keep my BG's in check. I still have eight weeks to go and I'm afraid I might…Continue

SF Pete commented on Andurea's blog post 'My health insurance premiums are going to increase three fold !!!'"I just completed our open enrollment. My PPO premium went up a buck. My dental PPO went up a couple. One thing that chilled me to the bone was that they said the increase was due to "utilization." All I could think was that this year I…"
Andurea commented on Andurea's blog post 'My health insurance premiums are going to increase three fold !!!'"Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see...My insurance Premiums went up slightly (for me and my daughter).

Sareln Pupkies commented on Andurea's blog post 'My health insurance premiums are going to increase three fold !!!'"My insurance premium increased by almost $400 this year making my premium over $1200/mo and the deductables increased dramatically.

Brian (bsc) commented on Andurea's blog post 'My health insurance premiums are going to increase three fold !!!'"A three fold increase is really outrageous. Most companies would not tolerate that, it would have an "impact." I also have an Aetna PPO and work for a "small" company. I would expect some increases from the latest health care…"

My health insurance premiums are going to increase three fold !!!

Rumor around my office is that our health insurance premiums are going to increase about three fold. The enrollment period for the new year is next month and HR is already trying to prepare employees for the shock...stating that premiums will be going up and it will be a historical increase. Rumors are all over the place and the word is that our premiums will increase 3 fold. Anyone else hearing the same rumor from your HR department or actually officially received the bad news already?… Continue

New Insulin pump System with a touch screen PDM?
Posted on March 13, 2010 at 1:04pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
I recently read a post from someone in the UK who mentioned a new pump that was being released there sometime this year. I can't remember the name of the pump, however I did visit the website for the pump and it was a similar system to the OmniPod. I cleaned out the history in my web browser and don't remember who the post was from.
The major differences from OmniPod:
Pod - smaller than OmniPod
PDM - Looked more like a Blackberry or iPhone with touchscreen
