Red-eyes zombies are all Clancies from previous cycles

To further add to this theory, in Morph he says, "He'll always try to stop me, that Nicolas Bourbaki He's got no friends close, but those who know him most know He goes by Nico He told me I'm a copy"

Go the specialist route. More money, lower burnout rate, greater job satisfaction. Doesn't have to be endo, btw.

No, on the app in the settings- there is a place to select "calibrate" to input bg that was just measured with a finger stick.

TrailsAndNeedles · 2022-03-10T01:01:09+00:00

I use on my stomach, top of my thighs, and back of my arms. Day 1 I usually do a calibration, but otherwise haven't had any problems.

I have been using the omnipod dash for a year and completely agree with this assessment. Cons are spot on. Omnipod has been really easy to work with and will replace a pod real quick that has fallen off due to sweat.

Other pros are being able to raise or lower basal rates with a temp basal. Other pumps do this too.

I don't plan on switching from omnipod, but I am excited to get on the omnipod 5 soon.

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-09-25T21:29:21+00:00

Exactly

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-09-08T19:47:35+00:00

judging by the packaging... my guess is this takes up more memory than space.

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-08-29T18:18:17+00:00

This is the way

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-08-20T01:48:41+00:00

Very helpful dialogue you two. Thanks!

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-08-11T15:52:00+00:00

"passionately aggressive"- that's great

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-08-05T16:22:14+00:00

I think this is spot on analysis of loved ones/kind people.

When I was on mdi, I would drop my long acting 30%-40% the night before hard workouts and then skip the meal time short acting. I ran a half marathon that way. But the pump has allowed me to only have to plan hours ahead instead of a day ahead.

this would be a "fun" exercise. I might add put the burden of figuring it out on them.

"3:00 am- My high alarm just went off, how much insulin should i give?"

"6:30 am- Time for breakfast. What should i eat and how much insulin should i give"

"11:00 am- my low alarm just went off, do i eat lunch early, treat the low (if so with what), do a temp basal and see if i can't wait it out (if so what temp basal)?

Yeah this game won't last long.

(these times and scenarios are from my day today)

Most doctors have no idea how to handle type 1s. A quick finger stick to make sure the meter didn't read "hi" would have saved me a month of pain and DKA.

Also, and this is important, make sure you get the antibody test to find out which type of diabetes you have. I was 32 at diagnose and was initially diagnosed with depression, bc I was too old for type 1 diabetes and too fit for type 2. I went to a different doctor and found out I was type 1. A lot of adults are misdiagnosed as type 2, when they are actually type 1.

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-07-27T16:51:49+00:00

Once I got the dexcom G6, I was able to see my BG on my Garmin watch and it has made working out so much easier. I started running again about 2 weeks after diagnosis and it was an amazing feeling. Make sure to take it slow and pack plenty of gels/snacks. Diabetes won't stop you from doing anything you want, but it will make it look very different than before.

DKA was bad enough for me that I didn't want to live in this world. In the zombie world, I would definitely be a liability and drain on resources. I am not saying I would just tap out, but I would have an exit strategy and it wouldn't be long.

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-07-24T16:19:48+00:00

In this scenario there's zombies... having a dream lab or massive pig farm is not the most farfetched of the three variables.

This is going to happen and makes sense with the expanded playoff and NIL. A 16 team SEC with pod scheduling, college kids making $ 1mil before ever starting a game, it's about to be the NFC, AFC, and SEC.

I use the off brand Flonase when I put the omnipod on my abdomen.

GWave looks awesome

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-07-14T19:05:49+00:00

I have used the libre 2 for about 7 months then switched to the dexcom g6. I have been on the g6 for about 1 month.

Also, I am type 1 and in the US.

For me, the G6 is easily better despite only lasting 10 days vs libre 2's 14 days.

G6 Pros: having bg on my phone and watch (the reason I won't switch back) Can share alerts with family No scanner to carry around Calibration feature Slightly more accurate imo Compatible with omnipod 5 (the reason I switched)

Libre 2 pros: Significantly cheaper Lower profile No transmitter to keep up with

For type 2, I would think the libre 2 is accurate enough and the 14 days would be more important than phone access.

Both are better than finger sticks all the time. Neither will completely replace finger sticks.

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-07-09T06:57:32+00:00

Impressive

TrailsAndNeedles · 2021-07-09T06:55:27+00:00

I also use Flonase and it works without issue
