Carleton left a comment for Cheryl"Hi! No problem - just did not want to provide the docuemtn for the entire TU diabetes site to view, as it took some work! Send me your email address and I will get it off to you. I used to manage the business group at vancouver Coastal Health…"
Cheryl left a comment for Carleton"Thank you Carleton, I would love to see what you included with your T2201 request. David will be changing endo's sometime over the next year as he will no longer qualify for pediatric care, so we will be looking at re-applying then."
Carleton replied to nel's discussion 'Disability tax credit for type 1 persons with diabetes.' in the group Canada Diabetes"I stand correceted mel! Thanks. However, here is the section from the T2201 that would nmake it more difficult fro soemone on MDI to claim 14 hours....quote
If your patient's therapy requires a regular dosage of medication that needs to be…"
Carleton replied to nel's discussion 'Disability tax credit for type 1 persons with diabetes.' in the group Canada Diabetes"see friend request, and your endo needs his or her head examined - I would get a new one that cares"
Carleton replied to nel's discussion 'Disability tax credit for type 1 persons with diabetes.' in the group Canada Diabetes"in practicality, it does not matter what you apply it to, as it is a cheque quarterly in your name - if you are lucky enough to have infusion sets covered by a third party insurance firm, then you are lucky - it is just cash. Many of us pay for…"
Carleton replied to nel's discussion 'Disability tax credit for type 1 persons with diabetes.' in the group Canada Diabetes"Once you hve completed the T2201, which is downloadable or printable on the CRA website by just hitting the search button, you have your endo sign it, checking off the boxes that you are on life-sustaining therapy requiring 14 hours or more a week -…"
Carleton commented on Manny Hernandez's group 'Animas Insulin Pump Users'"interesting - with an open septum the manufactureres tell you that water can get in, and although not dangerous, your pump could easily assume you have insulin in the cannula and reduce your does, no?"
Carleton commented on Manny Hernandez's group 'Animas Insulin Pump Users'"infusion rhymes with confusion and is one of the biggest challenges - short steel 31 gauge for my legs but teflon 8 or 9 mm for my stomach as the short 5mm does not work, even though it is easy as pie....David make sure you check out the NON-OEM…"
Carleton replied to Cheri's discussion 'Which Inset do you use?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Hey Cheri - you know how you are supposed to put that little clip on your infusion set (the one that comes with it) when you shower, and then you have to struggle to unclip it after so you can put your pump back on? Or if you have the one that has…"
Carleton replied to Cheri's discussion 'Which Inset do you use?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"I think that you will find that the manual insertion is so much easier, so much unnoticeable, and so much like a simple syringe tip, that you will never go back to those contraptions that the OEM manufacturers produce...I can insert, prime and fill…"
Carleton replied to Cheri's discussion 'Which Inset do you use?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"yes you can not only save the shipping costs by getting them mthrough the distributor, but their prices are the same as the others and you will be getting it directly from your pharmacy for tax and insurance purposes....."
Carleton replied to Cheri's discussion 'Which Inset do you use?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Absolutely - go to www.insulinpumps.ca which is the exclusive Canadian distributor owned by insulin pumpers, based in Mississauga, Ontario. They deal directly with the pharmacies and will get it to your pharmacy for you. Ask for Beth there. The…"

Roxanne said… - Thanks, Carleton. That is interesting. I called Animas last week about a problem with his pump. It was keeping IOB for longer that the 3 hour setting for a normal bolus. Then when I download to ezManager, when his basals change, the log book shows up to 3 different temporary basals. Crazy basals like 65.873!!! He is on basals that range from .200 to .350. When I called to question this, Animas was very quick to reassure me that the software is fine. Now, I wonder?

- I wish I was back there also! Haven't been to Inuvik in years, long enough ago that the 'gift' I was offered when I was up there, I could not accept (!!). Hang in there - 24 hour golf tournaments are on their way. John Walsh' book is excellent apparently (getting a copy soon) and he is a pumper also....

Carly said… - Hi Carleton,
I never did answer your question about the weather. The day I wrote my question (if I can remember) it was something like -38 (with the windchill it turned out to be -42) Too cold! Right now it's only around - 29 (with windchill of course.)
Hope all is well. Your pictures make me want to go on vacation! *S*

Hilary said… - MRI is not radiation it stands for magnetic resonance inaging. They are VERY powerful magnets. I am sure the pump should not be worn around a magnet. I was an xray tech for many years. I keep my registry, but no longe rwork in the field.

- Hi Carleton. I hope you have a great trip. Just a reminder that your pump should not go throught the xray machine. It can damage it. I didn't know this the forst time I traveled.
