What main dish do you consistently cover the best? Us- A bowl of chili.
Started this discussion. Last reply by Emily B Jan 21, 2012. 14 Replies 0 Likes
Son boluses full carbs of the chili then extends another 30% over 2 hrs. It always seem to turn out good. Today he had it as after school snack and flatlined in the 80s until dinner.Continue
Please give help, where help is needed.

After reading "Why I hate Lantus", I am questioning the community that there haven't been more posts there. This is a true call for help, a young adult that needs support in either educating his…Continue

The Dexcom charger! I was depressed for about an hour with the prospect of our son being sensor-less. Then I realized that Dexcom headquarters is in San Diego and that is where we are at!!!! Will…Continue

Emily B replied to Jacob's mom's discussion 'Any advise for teen sad about his D?'"I have said the same thing to people about Nate, that he was dx'd young enough to take my instruction and old enough to understand why. As I learned new things, I was able to teach him. He now understands different factors that go into making a…"
Emily B replied to Jacob's mom's discussion 'Any advise for teen sad about his D?'"Hey acidrock, remember me, I hope so, extreme as your experiences have been, I think you are right in our case at least. I think a girlfriend would be a real boost for Nathan morale. He's a good looking kid, I think, but he just doesn't…"
Emily B replied to Jacob's mom's discussion 'Any advise for teen sad about his D?'"Hello Amy, I read all the suggestions that you were given and most seem like good ones to try. I tried to put myself in your spot because at any given time I could be there too. My son was diagnosed a little over 3 years ago, a couple months before…"
Emily B replied to Siri's discussion 'Do you tape over the sensor?' in the group Continuous Glucose Monitor Users"We don't tape over the entire sensor either. Use the tape at about 8 days into it, just to keep the curled up edges down. It buys my son another 6 days or so. Thought once about taping over it when he went swimming in the ocean last summer, but…"
Emily B commented on Bram's blog post '2013 Workout with Dexcom'"Hey that looks like a great armband, where can I find one for my t1teen. We recently upgraded to the G4, but as slim as it is, it still bounces around on his waist while working out. Burpees - a whole lot of fun!"

Emily B replied to garidan's discussion 'Omnipod second generation in Europe and new Countries to Ypsomed' in the group OmniPod Users"That would make me so angry, can we do anything to lobby the FDA into speeding up this process. We've all known about the second generation for years. Its horrible that they can prolong an upgrade to a product so long that the company can go…"
Emily B replied to smileandnod's discussion 'Stacking Insulin'"That's so true, and it's what so great about TuD is learning how everyone else solves the same problem. We all have to deal with it and some have different approaches given their variables. Nate had also had a high after school yesterday,…"
Emily B replied to smileandnod's discussion 'Stacking Insulin'"I'd like to know too, wait you have 27 years exp. to our 2+. Cgm helps but we removed it yesterday and he wanted a break (a day usually) and we didn't catch his high before bed. The correction suggestion .06 gave 2 units for 216 (@ 2 hour…"
Emily B replied to nattysmom's discussion 'scary!!'"It's the same numbers of parties in my son's kindergarten class, thank goodness it's my other son that was dx'd at 14, and he doesn't have to be bombarded by that. It's enough that High School kids all around him are…"
Emily B replied to Kate's discussion 'He's here!' in the group What's on your mind?"Ha Ha! Ya know OS we go up to Mendocino County every summer (for 1 or 2 weeks) to get out of the heat here, hotter inland for us, and up there on the coast it's cold and damp, love it.
Kate, I wish I still had that list of how to interpret…"
