ShellGolladay replied to NatalieHodge's discussion 'apidra any faster?' in the group OmniPod Users"Hello! We started my seven year old son on Apidra two weeks ago and I am shocked and amazed at how easy the transition has been. His breakfast spikes were 275-350 and now he barely spikes above 175-200. He is completely flat and stable at night. We…"
ShellGolladay replied to Rich's discussion 'Any update on the butterfly strips' in the group OmniPod Users"Just an FYI: I had a vial of the "new" test strips that did not calibrate. When I called Abbott and they found out I was using the OmniPod as our meter they said that I needed to get in contact with Liberty to get the old strips sent to…"

ShellGolladay replied to Alissa's discussion 'Morning Tummy Aches - Daily. Why?' in the group parents of kids with Type 1"My only thought was ketones. My son has never had ketones with high BG's. One day he was tired, cranky, did not want to swim and had completely normal BG numbers I checked and he had small ketones. I am not sure if he was fighting an illness or…"
ShellGolladay replied to Sarah1988's discussion 'Tips to remove sticky residue'"We Use Unisolve wipes. They come in a pack of 50 and Walgreens sells them for $12.99. We use them to remove our son's OmniPod and to clean up the left over sticky spots! I hope this helps!"
Katsz replied to ShellGolladay's discussion 'Nighttime alarms and IOB' in the group Omnipod Users"My son is 16... is empty reservoir alarm went off....he got up.. turned it off and went back to sleep! Good thing I was testing him that night for basal testing and I got there 2 hrs after he turned it off.. and I had corrected him 1 hr before he…"
daneenm replied to ShellGolladay's discussion 'Nighttime alarms and IOB' in the group Omnipod Users"Caleb's timing would be almost perfect for my son. After 2 hours, his bolus is doing practically nothing more for him.
What I would suggest if you are worried about stacking is to make his correction threshold on his PDM higher. That way, when…"
Jen in CO replied to ShellGolladay's discussion 'Nighttime alarms and IOB' in the group Omnipod Users"Before going on the pod, Ty and I would both be in the high 200's (sometimes low 300's) as late as 3 hours post breakfast and then we would drop 100 points. It is better on the pod, though. I also worked on getting him to eat a less carb-y…"
ShellGolladay replied to ShellGolladay's discussion 'Nighttime alarms and IOB' in the group Omnipod Users"I am with you, Jen. I have always hated the 9:30 snack especially when most kids have junk. We are new to pumping so I have never "corrected" until the next meal with MDIs. (The 2 times in 18 months we got a needle out to correct a high at…"
Celeste replied to ShellGolladay's discussion 'Nighttime alarms and IOB' in the group Omnipod Users"Right now I have been giving my daughter(3 yr old) a no carb snack in the morning for that very reason - the first day on the new schedule they accidentally tested and corrected and she went to 45 by lunch but now it is under control - I wish…"
