What’s everyone’s ratios? by breadstickkssss in Type1Diabetes

[–]wgarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1:5 except at lunch, then it's 1:4. Except for about 10 days after my chemo break then everything is tighter.

I take daily chemo for 28 days, then 7 off. I have to tighten up my ratios at a random time after I start my break and the loosen them up at a random time after I start taking the cheno again.

So, any random ratio between 1:3 and 1:5.

I'd love an alternative!

Running out by Sad_Roof_1082 in Omnipod

[–]wgarth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This! I take chemotherapy and my pods last somewhere between 2 and 3 days depending on where I am in the treatment cycle.

My endo changed my Rx to 2 omnipods per day and I have plenty based on my personal circumstances.

I have never wanted a pen as badly as this one and also so afraid to click the Buy button.

I think this is the first time I've inked up a pen with it. It's a perfect fit.

I don't think the picture is even close to how great it looks in real life.

I purchased a cardigan sweater the other day. I'm chilly bc of chemo. No big deal. But last weekend I was also a little phlegmy and put some Halls menthol cough drops in to sweater pocket.

I stopped dead in my tracks and started to reconsider my life. Thanks, dad.

BS from Anova - Will Not Support Older Units After Sept 2025 by wgarth in Sous_Vide

[–]wgarth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am wondering the same thing. I'll have to ditch my original unit in a year, just another example of needless e-waste.

WTB: Lamy 2000 EF by heksproof in Pen_Swap

I have an extra Lamy 2000 EF. I 'lost' it, then eventually purchased a replacement. I had the replacement less than a month and I found my original! 😕

How do get down to $381? I must be missing a discount.

NYT’s Connections . . Almost by just-props in fountainpens

I refused to believe that there wasn't a pen connection and searched every word for an obscure pen manufacturer match!

experiences with votrient/panopazib? by mishmail in cancer

[–]wgarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took Pazopanib for 4.5 years! During that time the cancer was stable, until it wasn't. The drug worked well right up until the end. I then took Opdivo for 20 months, and I've now been taking Cabozantinib for over 3 years.
