alisa replied to Dee Meloche's discussion 'One Touch Ping Glucometer' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"I agree with Kathy. I LOVED my older Animas pump and thought the Ping would be the same, but it isn't. Only advantage: screen is in color. Disadvantage: they took the food database off the pump, so the only way to calculate is to use the One…"
alisa replied to etta amy's discussion 'Where do you keep your Ping?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Hi, everyone. I'm a size barely A bra, so slippig it under the bra strap in the middle does not work. Looks like I've got a brick between my small boosm.
However, I LOVE my Accu-Check (H-Tronplus) bra/pant pouch (made for their Disetronic…"

alisa replied to Dancer's discussion 'Cold Medicine' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Dancer, As far as symptoms during a cold, I haven't found a whole lot that doesn't spike my levels (I just adjust accordingly).
However, I've found that the moment I suspect a cold (from the moment I get a sore throat), I overdo the…"
alisa replied to Grey's discussion 'Animas Pump - Other types of infusion sets?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Hmmmm. Unless things have changed in the last year, I disagree. Animas specifically sent me Medtronic 'Quick-Sets' before they came up with their own 90 degree 'Insets' which I used excluseively with my IR 1250. Both sets were…"
alisa replied to Cara's discussion 'Where are we from?' in the group Tennessee Diabetics"I'm a T1 (been so for 28 years). I live in Maryville (about 20 min south of the downtown Knoxville area). There used to be a T1 pump support group when I first arrived 8 years ago (in Faragut), but it shut down a month after I moved here. I…"
alisa replied to jagolly's discussion 'Intense exercise raising glucose levels?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Couple questions: 1. Did you intake extra fats the night before or for breakfast? 2. Any stress (like nervousness because of new sport or who you were with)? Those two things cause mine to climb much higher when I forget to adjust because of them.…"

alisa replied to Alissa's discussion 'Correcting questions -' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Hi, Naomi's Mommy...
The longest it has ever taken me (during normal circumstances) to get me back into a normal range after finding myself at 250 or above is about 3 hours. During NON-normal circumstances it can take days. Non-normal…"

Hi Alisa,
I have recently relocated from Manhattan to TN. I am looking to connect with others with type 1 as I had a great network in Manhattan and obviously didn't bring them here with me! I have had type 1 since I was 18 mo old, I am 27 now and I have been on a pump for 17 years. My email is Caitlin.L.McEnery@vanderbilt.edu. I hope to hear from you soon!
Happy New Year
Caitlin
