One of the big myths about insulin pumps is that they are implanted — and the article I just posted about perpetrates that myth.
I just had to go through it with my mother last night.

New Pump
New device can manage diabetes
This is probably what I will end up getting. I do need to see about availability of the test strips.
And they have pricing here….

Went to the doctor today
It took three trips, but I think I have what I want now … metaforum twice a day, along with my twice a day insulin shots. Doctor did suggest the pump, which I’m going to start looking into.

Why does it have to be a BIG secret?
It can be REALLY REALLY frustrating.
Doctor told me today, that I should think about going on the pump. So I did some research. I’ve spent most of the last 3 hours on the phone researching this….

Fixed it!
I got the blog fixed … sort of. I don’t know what else I am going to put back, but at least the BlogRoll is back.
Hand is sore, can’t really carry anything in it. Can lift, but can’t hold on to things. I was this way last time about now too.

Good news
Well first darn it, I broke my blog. I will be fixing it until my hand is back.

Doing good
I cannot wait until I get this bandage off my arm. It itches.
Good news, though! No pain! Carpal tunnel pain is gone from both hands.
The metforim is doing great, I think I figured out my dose of insulin. At least I haven’t died yet. Or experienced any low.
I’m not holding my breath, but I think I’ve lost some weight. And my cardio workout got easier.
That was one side effect that I noticed before. I seem to have more “gas in the tank”.
