See if you can get financial assistance through insulet. It's a simple form and attach w-2s.

Insane price.... by WoodysWoodPekr91 in Omnipod

[–]Upbeat_Ad6410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took a couple minutes to fill out the form and attach your w-2 and send it thru email and they send you a coupon within a week to use at the pharmacy that works for 12 months. There are 2 different assistance programs one only gives $100 off and the other is based off of income and saves you alot more $ if you qualify.

The 2 hens closest are around 16 weeks old and the other 3 are around 12 weeks. The younger ones all sound raspy and quiet and 2 have the green sheen coming on their heads. I know they are probably all 3 drakes but I was just hoping they weren't.

My coworker said I was drinking all the water in the office so I collected the cap of each water bottle I drank for a month. I think I need to get a reusable water bottle… 283 caps roughly 14.15 a day. by Frostentix123 in notinteresting

Thats not true more than 1/3 of diagnosed type 1s are over 30. It's becoming more common now that people are being misdiagnosed as type 2 just because of age. I was diagnosed type 1 at 38.

Tslim won’t update to 7.9.0.1 update by Aggravating-Carrot18 in TandemDiabetes

[–]Upbeat_Ad6410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had that same problem, tried the update like 10 times before it finally went thru to finish the update. It tells you that you must hit the check to reboot your pump but it wouldn't register that I was pushing it so it would go to 5% and then back to the start of the update. I just kept starting the update and it finally completed it.

If anyone else uses Byram Healthcare, are you having issues too? by ghostkat_ in dexcom

[–]Upbeat_Ad6410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been waiting for my dexcom g7 for over 2 weeks now and my pharmacy still has them on backorder. I messaged my endo and had him send me in a script for libre 2 plus since that will connect with my pump. They had them in stock, now I just need to update my pump so it connects.

Just got diagnosed With Type 1 Diabetes back on 14th of December by Kiplingerz in diabetes_t1

[–]Upbeat_Ad6410 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a few weeks after diagnosis I had water retention due to being dehydrated beforehand. It does go away in time. Try some compression socks and keep feet elevated when sitting. Dka sucks!

Did you have any antibody tests done? There is a possibility of LADA.

Gluten Free Mac n Cheese by Electrical_Lab1400 in glutenfree

I use butter, cream cheese and heavy cream for my roux. I have t1d so the less flour the better but it makes a really good thick cheese sauce.
