We were just at my dd's endo appt at BDC. Funny that it came up since dd's only 13, but her endo is looking to do computer visits (via skype) with...
NP is indicative of, at a minimum, 4 years of school to earn a BSN, two+ years to become an NP (maybe 18mos if she did an accelerated program, but...
Everything above - that is why I would prefer to have my child on a pump also on cgm. We have experienced amazing accuracy with the dexcom G4....
Can you not switch to BC until May 30, or can they not get you in for your next appt until then? If it's the latter, I'd ask them if they're...
Thanks for posting Linda! I do wish they'd have the first 3m edited out. Made it hard to stick around!
I asked my daughter (13), and like me she can't decide. She does not feel her lows. Never did at night, rarely does any time of day or night now...

I love SiDiary, and use it to import Carelink, Dexcom studio and her Verio IQ meter. In order to import dexcom, you need to export the csv file...
It happened to my dd a few times, and started to get far too frequent. When I called, they had me click on the button in Studio that sends tech...
This. Every last word of it. I'm curious, is your endo specifically a peds endo? Our first endo fought us on pump and cgm. Center policy was one...
My daughter has tons of skin sensitivities, metal allergies, etc. She reacted to the medtronic sensor, but not to dexcom. We thought we saw some...
With those tests both coming back positive, you have a definitive diagnosis without the biopsy, and frankly, getting a positive biopsy is beyond...
We don't use basal rates to treat lows, but she does use them to avoid lows when exercising or competing. Then again, my dd is a teen, and we've...
