We totally weren't upset or anything - just never really thought about it until it happened. Everyone was nice....didn't mean to imply otherwise.
This was a first for us - while shopping in an electronics store on Black Friday with the family, my son's bg went low (50) in the store. His...
We had issues this past month ordering our new pump. We quoted three different $ amounts. Overcharged me by $1200+ and then had to wait over a...
My son was dx at age 7. He was extremely sensitive to insulin and carbs and his body was still making some insulin on its own. The smallest...
We have received the pump and have been using it for a couple of weeks in manual mode. Sensors are backordered so we are waiting for those. My...
We have basically started over and I have to remind him to bolus and check his bg every time. I don't get angry and we really haven't had any...

Sorry you are having a bad experience - that is unusual for us as well. Have always received help very quickly and if it was a pump issue - twice...
I checked with our BCBS and we cannot use express scripts for pump supplies either - durable med here too. We have a choice of Liberty Medical...
Who do you order your pump supplies through? We have BCBS and I can no longer order my pumps or supplies through Medtronic. They referred me to...

I haven't tried it with the new contour linked meter - but with the one touch linked - it asked him if he wanted to calibrate and he would just...
I posted in another post. Our insurance covers them but at a higher tier. Bayer has a program to help offset the amount. Just go to their...
I also get the school photos. My mom put all of mine in an album in order. My kids love to go back and compare and see how I changed each year....
