LadyD replied to LadyD's discussion 'My GP is awful'"I can somewhat see that point, still don't like it and will still be looking for a new GP. Then again after a month of being at the doctor's office every week (pump training, eye exams, ect.) I was at my breaking point. I'm also tired…"
Brian (bsc) replied to LadyD's discussion 'My GP is awful'"Different doctors will have different approaches to this sort of thing. I would actually expect most doctors to make you pay for a visit when you ask them to write a letter rendering their opinion. What becomes more touchy is when you ask for an…"
LadyD posted a discussionMy GP is awful
WARNING: This is a pretty long rant. I have decided to participate in a wellness program at a hospital within the system that I work for. Side note, I run twice a week during my lunch break in the gym of the hospital I work for in addition to other activities after work. What really got me interested in the program at the other hospital is that they offer a customized fitness plan based on your goals, a body fat analysis, and few other perks. Great! So I contacted the program to find that they…See More
LadyD replied to Diabetes and Johnny's discussion 'what Is Your Favorite Meter And Why>>>>>>>'"Of all the meters I’ve had, I preferred the Bayer Contour USB. I like it because it requires a smaller sample of blood and it is compact. I now use the One touch Ultra link and have the One touch mini for exercise (they use the same strips).…"
LadyD commented on Leigh's group 'Roller Derby Diabetics'"Thanks Leigh, I talked to my diabetes educator and she recommended I try not wearing it while participating in Derby activities so I think I'll give it a shot. I'm glad to hear that you don't spike much without it, though I've…"
LadyD replied to Sportster's discussion 'The Touch'"Accuracy is most likely the last thing on their minds. Now drama- that's where the money is lol."
LadyD replied to Teo's discussion 'Would you sometimes say YES to a cookie?'"Two words: Heck Yeah! Lol, cookies are my favorite; though I don't eat them as often as I would under different circumstances d-free of course."
LadyD replied to Manny Hernandez's discussion 'Where are the pumpers?'"Pump Model:Medtronic Minmed 723 Pumping Since April 10, 2012
Overall experence: So far so good I seem to have better numbers thus far
I would definately recommend to others who are comfortable with the idea and can get beyond the whole hooked up to…"
LadyD replied to Natalie's discussion 'Post breakfast highs!!'"Rant away sometimes we all need to vent. I actually really like the pump;I need just a little more fine tuning. Hope things are working out for you as well."
LadyD replied to sweety1691's discussion 'how to deal with a depressing situation'"I agree with the responses you've gotten thus far. I would also recommend letting your friends know that they don't have to do anything special when hanging out with you. If they want to eat pastries, pizza, or whatever they should. And…"
