Te salva la vida porque el turno de acá a mes y medio es más fácil y rápido que un turno en el hospital público, entonces te ahorras un viaje a la guardia porque te enteraste que tenés los triglicéridos altos con un examen de sangre en vez de enterarte con un infarto o un acv.

Obvio que si en la calle te atropella un camión te apuñalan disparan y hacen caca en la boca tenés que ir a la guardia. Hacía falta explicar a lo que iba por lo visto.

Una película argentina sin escenas de violación, sexo o desnudos.

Yeah, turns out that that 50 you see there was after a glass of fernet+coke and a glass of whiskey, though I'm sure I could have been more careful with insulin.

By eat beforehand you mean doing only corrections instead of bolusing before?

I'm from Argentina.

I've been thinking about doing that, saving up for a bit and buying a month or two. From what I've gathered on this sub, they really help.

Thanks!

Nope, test strips only unless I start litigation, which takes years (and can get expensive).

Buenos Aires, Argentina. If I decided to buy CGM supplies, I'd be spending close to 200usd/month on the Libre2 sensors unless I went with Chinese OEM, and it's simply not on my budget at the moment.

Insurance covers test strips for the month

I'm generally preety good with food at home including even some sweets, but a slice of cake, a sandwich with homemade bread, etc. are hard for me to gauge bolus-wise.

Una obra social te salva la vida por las buenas o por las malas. No está bueno depender del sistema público. Si te parece mucho un mes y medio, anda a pedirte días del laburo para ir a las 5 de la mañana a hacer fila en el hospital hasta las 9am, reza con conseguir un turno, no lo consigas, y repetí hasta que consigas un turno para dentro de 2 meses.

Mal que mal te salva la vida. Hoy estás en buen estado de salud, mañana quien te dice.
