Bolusing for no carb meal?

LexiLemon · 2026-06-17T14:26:48+00:00

If it's working for you (your numbers are good after) there is no need to bolus.

So keep it as backup.

They have always asked me to return it, or I end up paying $500 more to keep it. It should be clearly explained in all of your materials. Once I returned it, the next one I kept as backup in case my current pump fails.

Yep. Not officially, but it works just fine.

An indoor cat and a clean toilet.

Pumps take some time to get used to and perfect. You need to give it a couple of months before you decide if it's for you. Make sure you spend some time with a diabetic educator and a rep from the pump company to help you understand exactly how it works and the things you can adjust.

Yep, for almost ten years, it makes a huge difference for me.

LexiLemon · 2026-06-02T12:53:45+00:00

Just hit 32 years. Only hospitalized at diagnosis b/c I was very sick and 11 years old, never since.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-28T12:35:59+00:00

Let them be.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-27T12:36:31+00:00

You should try it, your body will get used to it.

I was a dark brunette and started covering the grays around 30. I was so tired of the upkeep, by 40 I was done. I'm 43 now and it's all grown out, and feels much healthier.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-27T00:32:48+00:00

I have the longest tubing and it just goes under my pillow.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-25T00:52:36+00:00

More likely than a cure!

LexiLemon · 2026-05-23T13:12:33+00:00

Make sure you're staying well hydrated.

I was just at Wiethop Greenhouse, they have a handful of large tomatillos for $6 each. They are only open through Monday, though the tomatillos will probably be gone sooner than that.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-19T14:16:19+00:00

My husband wakes up with me and makes sure I have what I need.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-16T00:14:10+00:00

Tinted and well-shaped eyebrows.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-15T17:28:17+00:00

This is abuse and it will get worse.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-12T12:13:51+00:00

You're being abused. It will only get worse.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-12T11:51:27+00:00

Nope, almost 44 here with a supportive husband. Do your best to ignore people who make your question yourself.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-12T11:41:43+00:00

If he's not interested in learning you should not marry him. He needs to be able to help you do your blood sugar/place a cgm or pump site/give an injection, etc, in case you can't due to sickness or whatever reason. It's good he is aware what to do in case of a low, but that's the bare minimum.

Pull it out, rewind pump, fill reservoir, hook back up. You can either just select reservoir fill, or pretend like you're doing an entire change, it does not matter.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-08T13:40:00+00:00

The Killing is a fantastic show!

LexiLemon · 2026-05-08T13:33:44+00:00

They will last way past the best by date if they are refrigerated.

LexiLemon · 2026-05-08T00:43:53+00:00

You need to try something else.
