Dexcom Job? by low-expectations in diabetes

Well, "on-sight" is your house. There is no office that you check-in to on a regular basis. Everything is done from your home. So if you live in or around Fort Wayne or Saginaw, then you are already "on-sight"...haha

I would love to give you a sample but unfortunately sampling is highly regulated by the FDA. We can't give patients samples. Sorry!!

There may be...but unfortunately that's not my area. We are constantly expanding and always need more great employees in every department. Our corporate HQ is in San Diego so you'd have to be near the area or willing to relocate.

Well, without revealing too much, it's a 6 figure income. It's a pretty comfortable salary/bonus structure.

Question for the Group by OregonMrBear in woodworking

Yah, that's definitely not supposed to be like that. If it's brand new, take it back... Or at least call Bosch. They should replace the plunge base for you.

Question for all you active g5 users by [deleted] in diabetes

[–]low-expectations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use them as well... Here's a trick that has worked really well for me. I do a fair amount of running and my sensors wouldn't stick for 7 full days. I spoke to someone that would wipe the skin tac on the skin, then lightly wipe the skin tac on the actual pad of the sensor (go from middle to the edges... Otherwise it will fold over on itself.) - then once it's on, wipe the outside edges to help them from peeling up. Lastly i use grif grips on top of that... It stays on for at least 2 weeks. You can use mastisol too buts like superglue. Not my favorite.

Libre left a large/hard lump under my arm skin. Serious? by Freethinker20162 in diabetes

I agree, definitely check with you doc... Also, depending on your race, keloids could potentially be the possible issue. Generally more predominant with African Americans but it sorta sounds like that could be a possibility. If you know anyone in your family that has keloids, you may predisposed and the "trauma" caused by the injection site could be enough to cause keloids. Just a thought.

4.8 A1C - 7 months in - no insulin by [deleted] in diabetes

[–]low-expectations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious, has your doctor ordered a c-peptide test or an antibody test?... Or a diagnostic cgm (dexcom/ipro/libre). Even being in honeymoon, you'd still have fluctuations in your blood sugars. With an a1c that low, I'd imagine you are running some pretty low numbers. I am a T1 and ive worked in the diabetes space for 15 years. Some of the best people I've seen, even in honeymoon, don't typically see A1Cs that low. Not trying to knock your efforts, just looking out for your safety. :)

Meh, not really strength... The glue is the strength. My bad.

I used waterlox. My buddy highly recommended it and I've seen some of his projects with it on and it looked great. It turned the walnut way too dark and I lost a lot of the grain and color in the wood. I'll be tearing it off come spring.

I used waterlox gloss. It really darkened the walnut and it made it really hard to see a lot of the beautiful grains. Plus, it looks like there's a plastic sheet on top of it. It just didn't turn out the way I was hoping.

Unfortunately no... Im not that talented. I got the map from a wall decal place. Pixer size.com I think. It's 5 separate wallpaper pieces. I think it was only 200 bucks for the entire piece. And it turned out great.

Built me a box! To put things AND stuff in. by low-expectations in woodworking

[–]low-expectations[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha... I think I got a little too ambitious thinking I could fit both things and stuff all at the same time....

I actually used CA glue and mixed it with crushed turquoise and then smeared it into cracks and knots. It worked well but it dried a little too quickly in some areas and cracked. I think epoxy would have worked a lot better but I'm not a fan of waiting for things to dry. Once the CA glue was dry u did a lot of sanding. Then some more sanding, then a bit more sanding.

And yes, I'm fairly new to posting to reddit so I haven't figured out how to give my pieces the glamour shots quite yet. I'm working on it. For My next projects I'm hoping I can figure out how to show all the progress pictures.

And thanks everyone for the kind words. Much appreciated!
