Good afternoon to everyone!I need to talk to more people and see what I can do ... summarizing, I need to speak 😬 I am currently with insulin bomb, the truth that at first was going very well, but I think I am entering a loop of problems with the catheters,Being pending the cannula, reservoirs ... My hemoglobins improved a lot with bomb, I've been with a bomb for 8 years.But I feel so "stifled" lately with all this that I don't know if asking the doctor's break to the doctor.I would like to know your opinions, do you prefer bomb or bolis?(I know it's something personal ...)
I also do not know how the transition could be since I have been without slow insulins and all that.
And if you have bolis, is there the option to use it with a sensor, right?Because without a sensor I don't want to be.
Thanks and greetings!

Hello!Unfortunately I cannot help you in almost anything you ask but yes, only with bolis you can use a sensor (they cover it) although it is probably not the same as you carry now.

Some will tell you that it is a setback because the pump is the closest to a healthy pancreas with all its incidents.

I use bolis and sensor, I am controlled and well, (I can not support a catheter or via in my body outside the hospital) but there are people who carry it regular because there are also failures, rare measures, it must be made capillaries, etc.And the bolis can fail.You can get to obsess as with the pump.It depends on your mental strength.

Do not return the pump, ask for a 3 -month rest and test.Then you decide that you are doing better.

In the end I take it off, ask for a break and if you see yourself with strength you put it again, the catheter surround me, in addition to getting fat 20 kg with a bomb in 3 months because it ate a lot and almost did not go up thepump blood glucose, I reach 5.7 of hemoglobin, but it is that Bufff material catheter and pedi change to bolis again

I would not return to Bolis.I keep the bomb ... but I understand that each one is each.

Hello good morning I was using a bomb 2 years to try it and see if I adapted the bomb I recognize that it is going well but when I always go quickly sometimes it seemed that the insulin did not enter and immediately put 400 my gycades have always been 7And with a 6.8 pump and I have 38th diabetics without complications and put to choose I prefer the slow bolis gives you a wild card that does not give you the pump and with the freestyle as a sensor it is acceptable.It cost me to leave it but I do not regret having done it and I returned with the units prior to the bomb without any problem.

@Yaizaj, that is precisely the problem that I see to the pumps, that if there is infusion failure the glucose is triggered.
I guess they will have many advantages, especially the last automatic.But I think they have to improve even more.

Today in the consultation, an emergency daddy has entered while they were attended by a 3 -year -old boy who was going to put the device this electronic that injected you subcutaneous that lasts 6 months and transmits to real time ... In theory only one onlyThey put children up to 4 years, so this little girl in less than a year would take it away and could the free style ... but the educator has told her that possibly after that time, instead of taking it off, I know itThey would change for another, since they were not going to take much to get a free style implantation sensor ... (or something similar is what I have thought I understand) I do not know if it will be true or not ... but if so, maybeStop using a pump (or not use) is more manageable or gets better ...
