Timsma joined Katsz's group
Momnipods and Popnipods!
A place for parents of Omnipod children to come and talk...and share ideas that work best for childern on Omnipod.
Timsma replied to MaryMary's discussion 'Arm Users' in the group Dexcom Users"Tim always wears his dex on his arms. Vertically. Never a problem."
Timsma replied to Laddie's discussion 'Receiver turning off' in the group Dexcom Users"I'm sorry you're having those problems. I would really call Dexcom today and see what they have to say."
Timsma replied to Laddie's discussion 'Receiver turning off' in the group Dexcom Users"Nice to see you here too! I just knew you'd like the dexcom's accuracy over the MM cgm! There's just no comparison for us, it's that much better for Tim. Tim's doing great! He's still occasionally having seizures with…"
Timsma replied to Laddie's discussion 'Receiver turning off' in the group Dexcom Users"Tim's has never done this, but he keeps it in its case. I'd still call Dexcom, what can it hurt to do so?"
Kate replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Good luck! Wish you guys all the best :)"
MidwestMommy replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Fingers crossed for you too...glad things seem to be going well."
FHS replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Ahh, yeah, that explains that. =P
I wouldn't have known either if it weren't for this forum. =)
Yeah, my insulin dosage is a bit low, but there is no rhyme or reason to it. I try to stay active but there are people on this forum who are…"
JCC replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Thanks for the email. Well, I guess if I used my brain I would have tried to draw it back out with the syringe. Really never thought of it and haven't tried it. I'm amazed that you can get through 3 days with only 80 units though. My basal…"
Timsma replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Tim's gone back on the pod and is on his 3rd one from that same box. So far, so good........keeping fingers crossed!"
FHS replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Hey JCC,
How much insulin do you lose if it malfunctions during priming? I use the minimum amount, around 80 U, and can withdraw most of the insulin from the malfunctioning pod for use in the next pod."
JCC replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Hey, I'm new to TU and the group but...I've been using Omnipod since August 2010 after 30+ years on NPH and Regular insulin. It took one of my children being diagnosed to move to the modern age. Anyway, my first three months on Omnipod…"
Timsma replied to Timsma's discussion 'Thinking of going back on MM pump' in the group OmniPod Users"Great information too! Thanks. I'll make sure we have everything electronic out of the way from now on."

MaryMary said… - I am not sure about that, but if you comment on something you will get e mails if you set it up that way. One nice thing that you can do is click on your friends and see what topics they have participated in. You might want to ask Kelly about the new posts. I really haven't spent that much time learning stuff here.
