How's it going with you?
I am hanging around waiting for the UPS guy to deliver my Revel today. I meet with the trainer tomorrow and then deal with the CGM a week later. Glad to hear the pugs haven't snagged the tube or chewed it ( I am worried about the chewing)
I am a little nervous about the CGM. Have you read the thread I started about the new system... seems the CGM is a little more iffy and complicated. Also the insertion hurts.
There is nothing like an older pug. I just love them. That is so great of you to take him.
I am so nervous about the new pump. I have never had a tubed one before and worry about the pugs and the mutt pulling out the tubing. Mine should arrive next week I imagine. Please keep me posted how it goes with yours.
This is CRAZY but I actually call my pugs a monkey loaf sometimes!! You know when they sleep with their legs tucked under them they look like a loaf. Best name ever!!
Sorry to hear about the rough day! Not understanding why I am high or low drives me crazy! Hope that you can figure it out soon and things return to "normal".
Wishing you a HAPPY AND BLESSED THANKSGIVING DAY!View All Comments
