Congrats Meg!
Oh my goodness! I can't believe Maddie is old enough to be in college! Congrats mama!
I got it downloaded! I had to create a new carelink account, but then it downloaded fine. Per Medtronic it was related to an "A##" error that I...
Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this issue? My pump keeps downloading until 67% then stalling. I've tried both mac and PC as well as via the...
Hi all! I don't post as much as I used to, but I wanted to make a quick post for all you parents of daughters out there. I have type 1 diabetes...
Been there. Go with your gut. You won't have trouble matching as an MD/PHD candidate. Feel free to PM me.
Congrats!!!

I stock up on pre-packaged candy for lows post valentines and post halloween. Smarties, starburst, fruit snacks, sometimes suckers or hard candy...
I just used a detergent bottle. They are made of similar thick plastic as sharps containers. At one point I had biohazard stickers to label them...
Honestly yes. I would advise against manual angled sets as the FIRST pump site unless you're using numbing creme. They hurt more especially if not...
I would honestly consider MDI for the summer. I take a pump break for every beach vacation. I would at least consider going untethered.
Trust me, I'm a doctor :p ;)
I still think in terms of "chunks" of 15 grams of carbohydrates for any food that I'm unfamiliar with or don't typically eat. I think it's a...
