"Amy, just a quick FYI, I have NHP (MassHealth) and they are covering 100% of my CGM costs (just got my Dexcom in the mail today). I also go to Joslin, and I believe all my endo had to do was fill out a prior authorization form, BUT as a note, Dexcom…"

A Wake Up Call.

This morning I slept through my 5:30am alarm by about 2 hours. I'm not surprised I did because I fell asleep so late, but when I woke up this morning that wasn't my only surprise.
I had gone low (really low) sometime in the middle of the night and had sweat through all my clothing and onto my bedsheets...ok that wasn't too unusual, but when I awoke I realized I had lost control of my motor skills.

Hey there!

I wrecked my car twice due to hypos and have scared my family and friends more than… Continue
