Colorado replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"Brandon, I have been on a pump for 4 years, been a diabetic for 26 years. I LOVE IT! I was never interested in it because the idea of having something atttached to my body bothered me. It was actually my husband who talked me into it. I was up to 6…"
Kim B. replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"I just started on the pump and I like it a lot. Wondering why it took me so long to come to start.
My CDE pointed out that a syringe is all you really need because you can always get insulin out of the reservoir and you'd obviously have that…"
Jennifer replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"@Brandon...I think the 722 is a great pump for anyone pumping a tremendous amount of insulin per day. I myself pump over 150 units and change my infusion set every 2 days. If you don't pump anywhere near that perhaps a 522 is for you...it holds…"
Ursela replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"It is recommended that you have at least an infusion set and reservoir with you in case you realize that you have a bad set. You also need to carry around your insulin as well in order to fill your reservoir."
Jami a.k.a Sugar Zomby replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"No problem. Aside from my pump all I carry with me is my meter and glucose tablets. Before I would have to bring along everything to be able to give myself an injection, not something I enjoyed doing out in public, not that I cared what people…"

Brandon Kadlubowski replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"thanks for respoding the i learn how to use things very quickly so that shouldnt be a problem and what do you usally carry on you on a dalily basis including the pump"
Jami a.k.a Sugar Zomby replied to Brandon Kadlubowski's discussion 'Deciding to Pump?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"Hi there, I actually just recently switched to Minimed from Animas, but I've been pumping for four years now.
