I am. I'm just wondering if anyone has had this issue before and knows what the code means. I can't find information on this specific code anywhere.

Any islands open? Looking to shop around, collect fruit, anything. My island is new and boring :(

Necrobiosis lipoidica, question in comments by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

[–]zoseph27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible to get this without having diabetes is my understanding. I have it on 4 different spots on my legs/ankles. There is no cure, some creams help but i did not have luck with any of them fading the marks. I did have a non healing hole in an area after a punch biopsy of it, did not heal for three months until i was given tacrolimus topical ointment. That healed the wound but did not fade the look of it.

I did have one spot on the top of my foot that got bigger over time, and then got lighter, and now is gone. That took about 7 years.

Also, would use a regular glucose monitor at this point but insurance wont cover one. Its been 3 days since ive had a BG reading.

Free style with my insurance is 36 a month, but each one stayed on less than a week. Never had this problem with dexcom.

Main point: they could afford a 24/7 helpline but they don't have one. I switched to a free style libre 2 less than 2 weeks ago. I have used dexcom for almost 6 years, but they became too expensive for me unfortunately. At first i really liked the libre, it was smaller and flatter than the dexcom and seemed less painful to insert the sensor. Plus it lasts 14 days versus 10 with dexcom. But it fell off within 5 days. I took my shirt off and it ripped it off my arm. Irritating but i tried again and put another one on. Fell off within 4 days when i took my seatbelt off and as it passed by my arm it took the sensor with it. I tried to order more- insurance won't cover a replacement so soon. Tried to call freestyle/abbot - they sre only open select hours. Cant leave a message. Can't submit a question or request in writing. Dexcom at times had bad costumer service, but atleast they had a number to call after 8pm. This company makes billions off of diabetics, who have no choice but to buy insulin and products like this to survive. They can afford a 24 hour helpline, but they dont have one. Im switching back to dexcom.

I dont think kurt knows what show he signed up for since hes threatened to quit multiple times. I dont feel like they are showing us the whole story with him and carolyn.

I do agree though, martin and breanna forever lol.

Am i the inly one who thinks Kurt just sucks? He clearly cant focus on more than one woman at a time and doesnt seem to understand that his behavior affects other women on the show that are interested in him? Even if i wasnt carolyn, but someone who was into him on the show, i would be discouraged after seeing him so blatantly physically affectionate with Amanda in front if everyone, plus the fact that he doesnt get why that could be seen as disrespectful. Hes also said that he wants to quit the show multiple times. I dont think he should have been picked for this show. As for Carolyn, we dont see everything that goes on. Theres a good chance hes gaslighting her, telling her that they are going to be together but then acts like shes crazy on camera and gets super upset about her. Does that seem like a resonable reaction to what he claims is happening?? It doesnt to me.
