Making a difference - what are you doing?

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 5:30pm 2 Comments

Sometimes ideas start with a small seed.



Last night, a question was posted during #dsma discussion on Twitter that made me think. It was, in essence:



What are you doing for World Diabetes Day?



Since then I've been pondering this very question.



At the time I thought, what can I do when so much of my time is eaten up by the day to day busy-ness of living and just getting by. Kind of a lame duck…

Hi

Thanks for the input, I have reduced the nph, and also the short acting humalog, my feeling is that the infection that I ve been dealing with was at one time over powering in my body , is now fading as a result of the IV therapy Im taking, thus the amount of insulin needed is not the same for when the infection was kicking my butt, so Im just reducing doses across the board and watching my sugars closely

Hi Jamie

I see that you have a wide range of information on using different pumps, I ve been a type 1 for 26 years, and well would always look to new ways that would give me tighter control, Im currently taking humalog and Nph which require seperate shots, as they do not mix, so Im taking 6, 7 shots a day, unfortunately my insurance only covers insulin, not the pump, any suggestions to get on pump therapy, one solution is I can try and qualify for a pell grant , as a benefit of the grant they provide insurance which I think would cover the pump, any input is appreciated..

No sloppier than my house keeping. Sure, I think it is awesome of have such a museum. I wish you were in the SoCal area. The city leads itself to different than the normal museums. We so many of them. I love old telephones and have been collecting candlestick phones for a while. I have been thinking about the same thing but don't have much room!!!

I hear you on the learning curve with the Animas. I had originally been on on the Medtronic Paradigm 522, but was only test driving. After 4 months of learning how to use the pump (all on my own - no English educators here in Montreal) - I told them I was going on holidays (cruise). They asked for the pump back - toot sweet. After 4 months I was addicted to the pump (40 years of MDI was so not cool for me anymore ). So, I called up Animas, told them of my decision, and within 3 days had a pump to take on my holidays 2 days later. I had to LEARN how to use it during my holidays, but I found it very easy compared to the MM (find the Animas screen easier on my eyes). Oops, just noticed the darn pic I took from photobucket below is now gone. Not liking Photobucket lately for pictures - you post them - then BING - gone in 20 seconds (isn't there a movie of that title).
