Hello Mike! I would like to invite you to the Type 1 Diabetes Lounge, a local education and support network that serves all of Chicagoland. And we meet in Wilmette. We've been around since 1989 and are renowned for what we offer. Check out www.type1diabeteslounge.com and join us!
Hello! Just wanted to tell you I love the Bill-the-Cat avatar!!! I had a difficult time choosing between him & the crocs I have on my page. Enjoy reading your messages - I'm a podder, also!
I wear it exclusively on the backs of my arms. On my upper abdomen, it tends to itch and I don't like the way it lays there when I'm driving (I guess I sit differently while driving). I don't like infusing into my upper abdomen either - I think my underbelly has much more sensitive skin. (*scratches furiously at the tape near her pod there*) I also think that I have such history with scar tissue in much of my abdomen that the arms are prime real estate.
But I get great readings on the arms, rarely dislodge it, and don't seem to have any problems inserting it myself (which is one complaint I hear people give about arms). Most of the time, I can't even tell which arm I'm wearing it on and most of my shirt sleeves cover the transmitter.
Hi Mike. The shots have had a really bad effect on my blood sugars. I have been running in the the high 300's and 400's range. I spoke with my MiniMed Rep. today and she said that it is not uncommon after cortisone shots. Did your thumb get better after the shot? And did the Dr. ever give you a reason as to how you got a trigger thumb in the first place?
20 pounds and I thought Joshua at 18 was big. But he is on a diet now. He is down to 17 and the vet wants him at 15 pounds.
