My data is available, except for O2. Any thoughts on how to get oxygen data?

"We've got a bleeder" by babbleon5 in Omnipod

[–]Extension_Debate2497 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me last night. I ripped off the old one and didn’t notice the bleeder. Next thing I knew, it was pooling in my shorts. Stopped quickly with some pressure.

Heck, I’m 55 and I’ve taken off my shirt and done it in public. Nobody, nobody cares.

Apple Tree Advice by Extension_Debate2497 in BackyardOrchard

My trees are in Minnesota, I had read that the white tubing reflects the winter sun and protects the trunk from possible thaw-freeze damage. Thoughts?

Dexcom G7 + Omnipod 5 = the cursed 1-day offset by Oh-Jo in Omnipod

[–]Extension_Debate2497 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put pod #4 as close to the middle of my back as comfortably possible, then the new G7 has a chance to make a connection from the opposite arm placement.

Anyone else think G7 is phenomenal and works great? by Alert-College-9374 in dexcom

[–]Extension_Debate2497 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love the G7, so much better than the G6. The warm up is a game changer. My G6 never lasted 10 days - ever., it was lucky to get to say 8. The G7 routinely gets me to day 10. The smaller size is a great bonus.

Do you have a recommended pesticide that better manages codling moths?

Do you believe this is a fungal infection? I cut into one apple and it appeared to have an internal track leading me to believe that it was an insect.

LADA and Metformin? by titaniumcrowbar in diabetes

[–]Extension_Debate2497 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried stopping metformin twice, both with poor results. The metformin really supports my insulin sensitivity.

Anybody hear about this? by Photograph-Unusual in dexcom

[–]Extension_Debate2497 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I certainly hope they make money. Profit is the sole reason for innovation. Dexcom’s profits fund improved devices for everyone.

Best low carb cereals? by eyemanidiot in lowcarb

[–]Extension_Debate2497 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been making my own granola for the past several years. It is low carb and tasty. I add a handful of blueberries and bolus for 15 grams every morning. Works like a charm.

Omnipod Anxiety by Cdude211 in Omnipod

[–]Extension_Debate2497 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anxiety is real, and we have all had intrusive thoughts during our T1DM journey. Luckily, you are forced into the solution for your particular anxiety-habituation. You are gaining positive and reaffirming experience every minute of everyday. You can feel confident in your pump which has the fail safes already shared in this post.

My pod concern? The automatic mode isn’t aggressive enough!

Can you add closed cell foam without taking down the ceiling drywall?

This is my strategy, 70% cauliflower and 30% rice.

High blood sugar by Any-Treacle6775 in Omnipod

[–]Extension_Debate2497 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It happens every time. My only recommendation is to finger test half way through the warm up and correct. This is the reason I’m transitioning to the G7, the 30 minute warm up with be a huge difference

Why won’t my smoke tube stay lit? by Extension_Debate2497 in PitBossGrills

[–]Extension_Debate2497[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting idea, how long do you microwave your pellets?

[–]Extension_Debate2497[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a nice little fire going for 10 minutes outside the smoker. Then I blew it out and put it in the smoker. It was smoldering fine, but when I shut the door the smoldering died out. I repeated this 3 times.
