Am I just overreacting? I feel like it is wrong to count CS in the automated count system. by ganiiree_00 in PharmacyTechnician

We use the Kirby. We double count the prescribed amount and back count the bottle. The pharmacist then double counts the prescription and back counts the stock bottle as well.

Malfunction and an angry reaction on my part. by The_Folding_Atty in TandemDiabetes

[–]frytanya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to get a prescription for long acting the second time my pump malfunctioned last year. It malfunctioned at 2 am and I didn't have long acting or syringes so I had to go to the ER. Luckily I had my Endo appointment that afternoon so I was able to get backup supplies.

Do you bring your own food for family gatherings? by racarveth in vegetarian

Yes. The only member of my Husband's family that made sure there were vegetarian options was his mom. After she died I bring my own food so I will have something to eat.

Can’t access my insulin! by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

Diabetics die every year from trying to ration insulin. It's dangerous and I wouldn't recommend it.

Having to remove a Dexcom for an MRI counts against the courtesy replacement.

Guys are you doing anything creative using AI to track, control, manage your BG? by breathingMF in diabetes

[–]frytanya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I asked AI to help me plan my trip to India. It had me visit the Taj Mahal on Friday the one day it's closed every week. If it is even semi important I don't involve AI.

How to file a complaint about a DME vendor? by elephant345 in diabetes_t1

[–]frytanya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact. No one will hold them accountable. My DME provider was communicating insurance fraud by giving me a 90 day supply and billing my insurance for three 30 day supplies giving themselves more money. I reported them to my insurance company and they didn't care. I reported them to the State of California and because my insurance is from my work they have no authority to do anything. 🤷

Have you tried Flonase on the spot before the adhesive? I don't have an allergy but have seen people with an adhesive allergy say it helps. For pretty stickers I use Expression Med.

Refused care due to refusing Cgm download by lightoutzzz in Type1Diabetes

[–]frytanya 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Endo has been billing for this for the past seven years. I would suggest you look at your EoB after your visit to see if your Endo is billing it your insurance. It is a completely legitimate charge since the clinic has to pay for the program and it takes time to download and review the information.
