kellyone replied to Brian (bsc)'s discussion 'My Chronic Fatigue and Low Body Temperature'"Have you added an iron supplement? At 22 you are on the low side, I would also like to see your B12 closer to 1000, especially if you are over 40. The US cuts normal B12 at under 250 but outside the US they like to see minimum reserves at 500 and…"
kellyone replied to Kathy's discussion 'Customer service issues' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Brian you make excellent points and I agree that our insurance companies can make things more difficult. The difficulty I recently experienced with customer service had nothing to do with insurance and everything to do with nasty staff.

kellyone replied to Kathy's discussion 'Customer service issues' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"I have been with Animas for years, this is my 3rd pump. I had always had great customer service until recently. Now the customer service people have been rude and condescending. Having this disease is hassle enough, it really doesn't have to…"

kellyone replied to Smile's discussion 'What were your BG values when diabetes was diagnosed and is this type 1 or 2 or something else?'"That is exactly how I was treated at diagnosis. scripts for syringes and insulin with no training. Still blows my mind that I had to reference books to find out how to give myself shots.
That was 1986, I was 24 years old."

kellyone replied to Dee's discussion 'What do you consider a minimum "hypo safety kit"?'"I'm with you Karen, I revert to syringes if there is a pump problem and it works quite well.
