Dani commented on Manny Hernandez's group 'Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users'"I have the SPIbelt too, and I have found that I rarely use the little cut out for the tubing. I just usually run it out at the end of the zipper :PShoshana: It's a "small personal item belt". I guess they are made specifically for…"
Dani commented on Manny Hernandez's group 'Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users'"I was told any kind of IV prep is a problem. I only use alcohol."

Dani replied to MeganB's discussion 'help for new type 1' in the group Cycling Diabetics"You might want to re-check that. I believe a serving size is actually 3 blocks at around 25g or so"
Dani replied to MeganB's discussion 'help for new type 1' in the group Cycling Diabetics"I have always had the Revel, but my daughter started with the 522 and she only upgraded because she needed the larger reservoir. She says that she doesn't really notice a huge difference. They do have the upgrade program, so you should check…"

I pack gu and also peanut butter sandwiches. I know many people like mix Heed into their…"
Dani commented on Manny Hernandez's group 'Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users'"I use the Silhouette and the CGM and I've never had a painful injection with either. With the Silhouette, it's easy to go too shallow which is more painful because the nerve endings are close to the surface of the skin. I use my abdomen…"
Dani replied to Jackie's discussion 'CGM Sites' in the group Diabetes and Women"My MM CGM is fairly new, and I haven't had any issues keeping it attached, so maybe things have changed. I had to experiment quite a bit with tape, but other than that, things have been great."
Dani replied to Jackie's discussion 'CGM Sites' in the group Diabetes and Women"I do it myself in front of a full length mirror. Sometimes, I get a cramp in my back from twisting around like that! :PMy daughter is diabetic also, so I'm thinking about enlisting her help to try my arms."
Dani replied to Jackie's discussion 'CGM Sites' in the group Diabetes and Women"I use the Metronic CGM too. Let me see if I can explain where I usually put mine: If you put your hand on the top of your hip bone, then go about an inch up, then move to the back side. I guess that would be the back side of a love handle? It ends…"
