I measure by change
Site changes that is... Since I started pumping insulin last Monday, I've done 4 changes. Yes one extra, I found out that taking a HOT shower and putting on a fresh site right after may not have been a good idea. The sticky didn't. So far everything has gone well. I've had some rather bad sleep last few nights, the pump has alarmed me telling me it has lost prime. The first time I was due to change out the set so I did it early in the morning. (that was the one that failed !) Part of the problem was the shower but another part may have also been me being half asleep. The rest of the interrupted nights I woke up and re-primed the pump and went back to sleep. I think I am going to have to call Animus to find out what is going on. The other thing I ran into was my meter developed a line across the screen. Called Animus and I had a replacement overnight. Incredible customer service. Have found out that that it being tucked INSIDE my pants (when dressed up and at the symphony) just doesn't work. Uncomfortable and awkward and just where I want it. Maybe just give up and put it in my pocket. - More later ! -
