elizabeth.redman178 replied to Emmy's discussion 'It BURNS!'"I've had this feeling once but it was in my leg. I would take it out and leave that area alone for a while. Have you ever tried using your lower back? I was so scared to do it at first but it's actually a really good place. Hope this helps."

I changed my pump site yesterday. Twice because the first one was burning really bad I couldn't stand it so I changed it. This site started to burn to and it hurts a lot! They both hurt when I put them in so I'm thinking I might have put it in some muscle or something. It looks perfectly normal but it actually feels like its eating away my stomach. Any one else ever had this feeling? Please help!

Emmy replied to Emmy's discussion 'Trying to lose weight'"Thank you guys this made me feel a lot better! I going to find other exercises to do along with the elliptical and I will definitely change my eating. I don't have much encouragement at home or anywhere else except for here, so it means a lot!…"

Our Annual Campaign is coming!
Would you consider helping by writing a short comment/testimonial about your
experiences at TuD? The main message for the campaign this year is that no
one with diabetes should ever feel alone. Messages from our community give
people a real-life, personal sense of how valuable TuDiabetes is to each of
us, how it's changed our lives, etc.If you can, please include a photo of you doing something diabetic (if that
makes sense LOL). Please post to this group
(http://www.tudiabetes.org/group/why-i-participate-in-this-community), or
message to me from my page.Thanks my friends!

lotsofshots said… Hi Emmy, wow, what a nice page, this is quite awesome. Read about your bummer experience at school on chat. Really that is so horrible to go through, I think we have all been there at your age, but in our own special way and when it is happening, it is really tough. I hope that you can think about something else this weekend, as impossible as
that may seem. Don't know where you live or what you enjoy doing, but maybe you like Halloween I don't know, but I am going to carve pumpkin for fun this weekend and walk around this afternoon and check out Halloween stuff that other people put up around the neighborhood. I have a black cat that becomes good decoration for this time of year. Hope you have a good diabetes day. I was tripped in hall, hair pulled all that good stuff, feels like nightmare so I am feeling for you. Now I am older still look back and it is sad but doesn't cause pain anymore. Talk to your friends here, we all care for you Emmy, Lots.
