I have always worn my MM sensors on the upper buttocks, though MM doesn't recommend doing so. I don't think I can take a photo, however, because I live alone and any photo I attempted with a self-portrait feature on my camera would be X-RATED! In ...

I like my arms, but haven't used them lately. Just make sure there's someone around to help you yank the needle out and tape 'er down.

Tell them to trust you? I was single and living alone when diagnosed, but luckily nobody acted like I could no longer live that way. I've never had a single problem w/ passing out or not being able to take care of myself. The one thing that does m...

I've gotten condensation on every pod I've used so far. But I live in an area where humidity levels haven't been going below the 70-something% range, so I'm fairly certain this is the cause. If you're not sure, change it out.

My rep said that there is a vibrate feature in the new PDA, but the FDA wanted more time to clear that so they decided to wait for clearance. I think they're trying to get the vibrate feature cleared w/ the Dexcom integration.

hi kimberly but my friend was already embarassed and in a bad way and I dont think insisting that she cause a scence would have been the best option right then and there . I think we did the best thing we could in the choice to go home and try another flight in a couple of days . well for the trips from now on we will just do Mdi s which is what I do cause I cannot afford a pump . so the best option we figure is that since no one has bothered to return her phone call . thanks for your weighing in though appreciated very much .

Too cool! I wanted to be a robotic engineer when I grew up, but somehow I became an artist instead. Now I am moving back into the technology field once again. Where once tech'y stuff was a hobby and art was my job, I am almost done switching those both around, heh.

I noticed you made the switch to the pump fairly quickly, if you don't mine me asking, was it an easy transition for you?

Hi Kimberly. Pretty cool pics/job. Just thought I'd reach out and say hi and ask if you know Salty & Sweet. She's another ME/Robotics type on the forum. Thought you guys might want to hook up.
