Hello everyone!!I have been a little disconnected and I have missed the last comments.First congratulate @"Joseludi", finally, right?How long the wait is made!And if not, ask @"fco_javier_8888", which gives us even to put the little hands where we should not, by the way, go task what happened to you and I hope you send you the new one before Friday.
Today, just a week ago that I am connected with both the pump and the sensor and that patience is the first commandment to follow with this, it is a truth like a temple.My greatest disappointments have been: 1.-I have abandoned the little sport that my physical condition allows me to make, for the fear of taking both the sensor and the catheter.After the pleasant and instructive conversation that I maintained privately with the friend @"jconegar", I will try to try again today with some recommendation that gave me and from here I publicize my thanks.What I am going to do is leave some more time for the Skin Tac to dry a little and then put both the sensor and the catheter, to see if I get it.
2.- I have had trouble finding the suitable site since both the pump catheter and the sensor have been bent.This has happened to me in the lower back.So, the low back zone does not go, in the abdomen I have little zone since I have lipodystrophies and where not, I fell the pump patch for the sweat when exercising.I am trying now with a sensor on the side, that is, neither the abdomen nor the back, that is, in the chicha below the armpit, just before reaching the waist, there I have two days with the last sensor and has notThere have been problems, we will see when I exercise today.
3. Calls to the technical service are necessary but eternal !!!!!While it is true that they do what they can help and they will replace everything that has failed me.
4.- In a week that I have, they will replace two insulin pump patches (one for detachment and another for bending) and two sensors (the same: one for detachment and another for bending).That is, except for a pump patch that if I reached three days, the rest does not and, with respect to the sensors, I have already had three positions and still has no end of the 6 days.I think this should not happen at all !!!
When everything goes well, it is wonderful, after 27 years of diabetes, I do not stop freak out with the fact of taking a look at the pump and to be able to put the insulin just by pressing a button, it is amazing!On the other hand, when it goes well, the sensor is another wonder, having control at every moment, that stops you the basal infusion without doing anything and seeing how glucose traces without doing anything, having avoided a hiccup, is an authenticpass!!!Possible hypos I can say, without exaggeration, that it has avoided me at least more than 10, sure, in a week.
Anyway, now my obsession is that they do not take off to normally do some exercise.Find the insertion zone so that they do not bend.
Tomorrow I see my endocrine and the commercial of Medtronic.I will tell you all the incidents, to see what they tell me.I also hope we will refine something else in the sections to put the basal.
And I don't get bored anymore!
Greetings to all and we continue to comment !!!!
