This is a bit creepy.

Diabetes In Control – A New Way To Treat Diabetes?-Discovered By Accident?

A rare complication of gastric bypass surgery that leaves its victims virtually disabled, may point the way to new treatments for diabetes.

Rick St has made some great comments tonight. And some really good advice.

I will admit that I am not as cautious on lows as Type 1’s need to. The good news, is that I haven’t had a treatable low since I’ve gone on the pump. I’ve been on the way down. I’ve been border line a few times driving which gives me the luxury of picking something full of sugar as insurance. That’s the hardest part, picking something “good”.

And the BD SureClip actually holds onto the needles it clips, so you don’t have to worry about disposing of them. Apparently it’s almost impossible to find around here. It’s not listed on the major drug store sites, and my local pharmacy can’t get it even with the NDC. I’ve found a diabetes supply that carries them, so I might try that way.

I personally just stash sharps containers everywhere I might use one.

I’m even closer to the end. I have officially completed my course work for one of my two classes.

I still have a discussion, an extra credit question, and the final to complete for the other class.

Whew.

Got my last medical thing of the summer done today — mammogram. Summer is when I get the annoying medical things done, and the mammogram is always the last one.

Just went to Kinko’s and printed out everything. We have to print out our paper and hand it to the instructor — that’s due tomorrow. I have to present my paper and each member of the class gets a two page summary of the paper.

I’ve just turned in both electronically, and so I am even closer to done.

Getting even closer. I’ve got my final exam questions and they are due next Monday. I only have to answer 4 out 9, and they are all very doable.

I finish the other class tomorrow with a presentation.
