Ha ha ha.Cheer up.This is ..... Diabetes !!!

Hello!I use Medtronic insulin bomb 6 years and my glycosylated hemoglobins has improved a lot!With pencils and freestyle I couldn't get out of 8, now I'm in 6.3, the best in my 13 years of diabetes!I recommend the 780G, which has a continuous meter and self -correct when you are high, and suspension when you are reaching low values ​​to avoid hypoglycemia.
The bomb carries responsibility and attention, that people ask you what you have hung, that inputs can be taken off, but putting in the balance, it is much more the good control of diabetes than all that can happen once every so often.

If you have more doubts, I can help you in what you need !!

Well, I do not just convince me, I see it uncomfortable and also to lower the glys what you have to do is lower the intake of carbon h, no matter how much bomb you have.If doing so you continue in glycades of 8 would have to investigate that it happens there and could help you the bomb but if you are going to eat the hydrates you want, it is a nonsense, it is the same thing to say, well, as what I want and then doubled the dose of quick.It is not his own because you end up having great insulin resistance and that is already a real problem.The less insulin the better (achieving clear normal glycemia) and you can only get it with few hydrates.

Good night .Finally after a lot of fight at the end my endocrine has made the request to put the insulin pump.I would like to know in Andalucia how long they take to call you to put it on since I am looking forward to.Thank you so much .

Hi @Antilla I have told you on another subject, it took me 1 year, it was not in Andalusia, but I suppose that there should be much difference among communities.

Hello!I am from Madrid and although they have taken more than I would like to put it on, they have not taken as long as other people in this forum ... (if they have taken more for the waiting time between consultations, as detailed below).

In May of this year the endocrine referred me to the consultation of the endocrine specialist in bombs that is the one that would put me on the waiting list in case I was approved ... and well ... the appointment came in September.He explained a little the advantages and disadvantages of the bomb and after seeing that he gave the profile (according to him they give them to children, pregnant or with thoughts of being moms, inadvertent hypos and high glutemic variability, I do not know if I leave any more)He put on the waiting list.That waiting list is carried by hospital management.I thought it would take much longer, but three weeks later my nurse called me to give me the news that they had approved it and that now the protocol was to see that I knew how to count rations and things.That was at the beginning of October, at the end of October I met with my nurse to see my counting technique and then gave me the date for the formation of the bomb with her and the Medtronic commercial for the following month (the same dayFrom the formation with it in manual mode and the following week we activate it automatically).I have been with the bomb for a short time but I am in love with it, I am at 95% in the range and that for me was unfeasible without it (and that I was a "slave" of diabetes, without obtaining any results).Of course, the pump should be a right for every type 1 diabetic, regardless of the age you have.I seem to know that this I am savoring I can not taste more people (I have seen the sky with it, because even if you still tell my head rest very much ...)

I am dm i and I do not use bomb or I want it.

At the moment the bombs are not an artificial pancreas.It is you who have to do the calculations of the hydrates you eat and what you click, or in this case of the bowling you put on.

In recent months I have changed insulina novorapid to Fiasp ... is much better, faster and a more similar effect human insulin.

In glycosylated hemoglobin I have dropped to 5'8, it was usually always between 6'4 and 6'7.He had only dropped from 6, about 3 times in 39 years.

I do not need to take a device attached to the body ... Of course, I would be willing to use when the closed handle system and the pumps without catheter progress.That occupy a very small space.

The most important thing in diabetes is diabetology education.That does not replace any machine.
