Well, here I am. I stumbled upon this site during a weekly trek through the world wide web. I've been looking for information on diabetes and pumping.

I agree 100% about pumping being easier! We're hoping for a baby here pretty soon and the control I have with my pump is so much better.

Well my biggest consideration is the fact that my husband works for Medtronic, and our insurance through him pays for the pump and my CGM 100%! I didn't even bother researching the others. So far, so good! I love my pump!

Thanks for the compliment! I was posing for my brother who thought it would be funny and it turned out to be my favorite wedding picture. Thanks for the welcome!

Ha, mine has long since expired, probably not a good thing to let go down the tubes, but don't think I could do another barium enema, ha no pun intended.

Doing well thanks after a rough bgs day. You are a chiropracter? I use to be an x-ray tech. Kind of related. :)
