Marc, I fill that sucker up all
the way, and just let it go! No absorbtion problems and no infections. (Does
that sound like I'm rubbing that in? Sorry!)
On Mon Nov 25 15:07:12 2002 Marc W () said:
Faith, no I am not going to like
that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am soooo jealous about that. That is why I asked, because
my 2 day rotation is causing some areas to not absorb and I need to give them a
rest. Scott keeps telling me to use my thighs but I don't see how that would be
comfortable. But I may not have a choice. I just am amazed that you and some
other pumpers I know can get that long out of a site. Do you have the tip of the
resevoir sticking out or do you just fill it to 150 every few days?

Marc, I've only used my stomach.
Just alternate from one side to the other, (you're going to like this, not!),
every 5-6 days.
Have you used your thighs?

Faith... I guess 5 is good if
he's not on meds. I have a question on the pump, have you ever used your legs as
a site?

Marc, Just read your post. My
husbands doctors were very pleased with his 5.something reading. Maybe his being
a Type II is the reason. He isn't taking any meds for the diabetes, just
watching what he eats.
My shoulder is still bothering me. There is a slight improvement. I'm
determined not to have surgery on this one.
I know I'm not in the pain you are experincing, so my hi's are sometimes
affected by some pain, but, most of my highs are for obvious reasons.
I'm still sold on the pump, and hope I never have to give it up!

so need
input on headaches. Already ruled out brain tumors - been there, done that.
These are just horrible headaches and not even percocet touches them. Stress?
Any sort of neuropathy involved? Maybe a virus? Bad 3 days here for everyone.
But this is Pete and if he can stand up he goes outside so he is out working on
a shed anyway.

Comatose? I sleep about 2 hours
a night, a coma would catch me up on some needed rest! I don't take all those at
once, I would be dead from that, I take as prescribed. They are triplicate form
drugs so I am completely monitored, I can't get a refill one day early. NSAID's
I only take maybe 3 days in a row and at the most I do that once a month, with
doctors approval and blood work. My point is, there is no reason to be in pain,
and in turn have the high sugars that go along with that. An aggressive doctor
can treat those pains and monitor you to make sure there aren't any side
effects. My docs philosophy, the danger is far greater to the body with 500
sugars from chronic pain the the addiction aspect of the meds, and he would shut
me down if I was getting out of hand on the amount I take. But thank you for the
concern! ...... Go Boltz!.... Marc

18:31 you say it had nothing to do with
religion because 'not one pageant person was affected'? What spaceship did you
just get off ?

religion is bad for your health

No, is all religion....read the news
reports....are you a religionist ?

Marc I wondered about all those meds,
are you a addict ?
On Sat Nov 23 18:31:14 2002 o brilliant move in Nigeria (the fighting in
Nigeria) said:
was going on long before a pageant came to town. It will be
going on long after the pageant leaves. There was no actual connection to the
pageant or anyone involved, the media tried to say there was. Not one pageant
person was affected other than having to pack for London. Meanwhile the city of
Abuja just lost many millions upon millions of dollars to its economy that a
world event would have generated. Everyone loses and the fighting goes on. This
is no more about religion than the Irish problems are - its all politics.

On Sat Nov 23 15:09:05 2002 actually thought of replying to.. (the crazies here
today...) said:
then decided to ignore all of them. They will get bored if
we keep ignoring them. Marc why are you not comotose on all those meds? or do
you alternate them? NSAIDs all have the potential for liver damage - quarterly
bloodtests are very important on many meds. Faith I hope your ortho is talking
to your Diabetes doctor and coordinating everything. You have to coordinate your
TEAM and be sure they communicate.

105 people killed and
burnt to death in Nigeria over Miss World contect. People dragged out and had
burning tires put around their necks. All over Muslims and Christians fighting
over religious morals. Nothing like true religion to save the world. God told me
to hate you.
