Athletic Diabetics
For all you athletes with diabetes (or wannabe athletes!) - a place to exchange workout tips and encouragement.
carlito commented on Manny Hernandez's group 'Animas Insulin Pump Users'"replacing your pump is easy. I work in construction and definitely put my pump through the ringer. Just recently the buttons on my pump started sticking. I called animas, they asked me a few questions and put a new one in the mail. I live in Alaska…"
carlito replied to matilda's discussion 'son new to pump - i have a question - and need some support too :P' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Depending on how much juice you are giving him you may be "over treating". It doesn't take much. Kids also love glucose tablets, you could try two or three of those. It is possible that his night time basal rate needs to be adjusted…"
carlito replied to Brian's discussion 'First (and hopefully only) Blackout'"Glad to hear your ok. Sounds pretty bad. I've been diabetic for three years and no blackouts or anything yet, "knock on wood". Lots of scary lows in the 20's to 40's but glucose tabs have saved the day so…"
Jeff replied to carlito's discussion 'Belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"If you are talking about the metal clip, it is really a bad design and falls apart. The claim that this is intentional seems a bit strange these days. Perhaps the pump housing should be stronger rather than the clip weaker. There are a…"
Sharon (Sneetch by the Beach) replied to carlito's discussion 'Belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"I just ordered my new clip and was then transferred to the customer service suggestions & complaints rep. The more complaints they have the more likely the Animas design & development team will work on making a stronger clip.
If…"
Sharon (Sneetch by the Beach) replied to carlito's discussion 'Belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Yep - my clip wore out last week! I am going to order another one now. I hope they fix this issue on future pumps :)"
Jay replied to carlito's discussion 'Belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"I use a nylon like material case to hold my pump. It has a velcro closure and a large metal belt clip. It is made by RIPOFF, PO Box 3270, San Dimas, CA, 91773. Their website is http://www.ripoffs.com/ . I have forgotten the…"
carlito replied to carlito's discussion 'Belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users" I did have to pay for two new clips, but that's ok. Not too expensive, and like everyone says, "better the clips than the pump." The clips have a three month warranty. Happy holidays to all of you.
Carlos"
Lori replied to carlito's discussion 'Belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Did you have to pay for your new clips? The clip wears out all the time on my daughters pump and it's irritating. Just wondered."

carlito replied to carlito's discussion 'CGM' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Thanks for the feedback. My blood sugar has been so great since I got my pump. I guess I have quite a few lows but I still notice them. This week for some reason my readings are all over the place and none of it seems to make…"
