HELLO EVERYONE.I am type 1 diabetic for 20 years.I have decided to put insulin bomb (to improve my glycosilada and avoid complications or lengthening them) Paradigm I see Minimed.I would please ask for people who have experience with insulin bomb, how about intense sport and bomb? Advantages-inconveniences-functioning, etc.

Today they have explained to me and in a time I will take it ... and I have been worried about the consultation, I have even been about to advocate this project.

The sport I do is competition basketball ,,, I sincerely think it is a move to carry the pump and do this type of sport (no light).I am afraid that for some blow, fall, etcLittle high.

Well greeting everyone and a lot of encouragement with this disease that has had to carry, thank you in advance.

Hello,
In basketball where the changes are frequent and it is rare to be more than 25 or 30 minutes on the court, I would not take it on, it is likely to leave you.It is dangerous a pull or that I liped in catheter ... I disconnect it and according to how I see that my body reacts every half hour or time I would put half a unit or 0.25.You sit down, you drink water and connect the pump 1 minute and disconnect it, so if you have s souther

Oh I forgot.For training I would take her well protected.You can try to wear a neoprene case of those mobile in your arm and the catheter that comes out of your sleeve.There is a catheter of 110, with tape you can fix it that length with body already if it is safer before a pull

You can also make disconnections up to 3 hours maximum, (3 hours in 3 hours) although I suppose you will have enough.I tell you for training or if you want even the full game
