Agreed. While the desire to pay it forward is noble, I would hold onto it as a spare/backup.
We use De-Solv-It. Spray and wait, he'll find it on the floor a few minutes later. They use it to remove IV tape from preemies in the NICU. We get...
Well done, Meg! Best wishes to you and your family.
We have good control. Our goal is same A1c with more sleep and less time out of class. Average is the same but things are less volatile.
I misread your post, Ali. Yes, for the Loop, you can set it to anything. It uses a Medtronic pump but is not a Medtronic AP - it's a DIY system.
You can change this setting to anything your heart desires! And multiple targets throughout the day/night. We chose 120 because it's low enough to...
Yes indeed. Any basal increases are added to IOB. And decreases result in negative IOB which results in reverse correction at next meal. It's...
You can certainly override the suggested bolus but typically the loop has seen the spike coming and already been working by increasing basal by,...
While I am flattered, I am a dummy compared to the people who wrote this software! :)
You are doing the right thing. No sane person would set this up for someone else for any amount of money because of liability, and it's not...
IOB is the same, there is just a lot more data available and Loop actually does the math vs a PWD operating on hunch/experience. Loop has your...
On November 11, we began using a homemade artificial pancreas known as Loop to manage my son's T1. All of the code is online. It is *extremely*...
Congratulations, Meg!
I don't have any advice beyond the excellent advice above, but wanted to chime in and say welcome to our shitty club. I hate diabetes but it has...
This should not be a mystery! It's not the insurance company that determines coverage per se; it's the policy your husband's employer has...
I don't think there's anything you can do about this. You might try to educate your ex but I'm guessing he's your ex for a reason? I am about as...
The Share server was down for a few hours yesterday morning. They didn't update their status page. The only way I found out was through the CGM in...
My pleasure. Definitely avoid the commercial sites. But I think the NIH is a good place to start. First link:...
A quick google search shows it's got some promise, but only for T2. I'd lump this with okra and cinnamon as far as T1 is concerned....
Glooko is free (as of now) for Omnipod users. It also can be set to retrieve Dex data automatically from the cloud. However, I find the interface...
