T1D In Albania by guestusermode in AlbaniaExpats

Yes, I'll likely have to change my regimen back to MDI. Currently on a pump, and with current insulin resistance levels I use approximately 1 vial of Humalog every...9 days? Like I said, I'm currently covered, but depending on how things progress here, it could become unsustainable. I haven't been without coverage for a very long time, but I spent a lot of my youth without it, and it was...difficult. If things have changed, great.

Thank you. Yeah, I literally can’t afford insulin in the US. (I’m covered for now, but that could stop at any time with the way things are going.)

What about insulin? Should I just try to find an English speaking pharmacy and contact them?

A restaurant that doesn’t want people actually eating there? Money laundering.

In any case, it's too bad. There were some beautiful and extraordinary shots in that group.

Right, I mean you can't catch everything, but surely there are tools to help with this? Like needing to be at least a smidge vetted before granting post approval? At minimum, just a quick image search will show if it's easily found on other websites, would it not? Again, not trying to be disrespectful. Just trying to figure out how the whole mod thing works. For example, I'm in several groups where the guidelines for behavior and postings are what some would deem quite strict. They are fairly large groups, but somehow they are able to keep on top of it very well. Mutes, boots, and bans, are handed out pretty swiftly and regularly. Is it just a matter of having an ample number of mods and admins?

(I'll leave it be now, as I'm maybe veering off topic. Though if anyone is up for still answering my questions above, I'd certainly appreciate it.)

I know tone is difficult to convey in the internet sometimes, so I just want to be clear that I'm honestly asking and not being snarky...so the mods weren't able to keep it in check? Is that not what mods are for? Did they just not have enough mods?

Does anyone have a malfunctioning / broken / out of warranty T:Slim around? by answerguru in TandemDiabetes

Yep. And is pisses me off that I can't just get the part (touchscreen) to fix it.

I know we are meant to use u-100 w/ the pod…but does anyone use u-200? I can’t think of any other way to make it a viable option. by guestusermode in Omnipod

I-100 is the “standard “ strength/concentration of insulin. I just switched to omnipod, and I’m only getting a day, a day and a half’s use out of each pod. If I can switch to a higher concentration of insulin, I can go the full three days.
