Ramona, I've been on the pump for 6-7 years now. What would you like to know about it?

Go to www.minimed.com there you should be able to find out all you need to know. But, feel free to ask questions and I will try to answer them.

ON STOMACH PAINS gastroparesis is not likely with only two years in but certainly should be checked - there is a series of timed scans that can be done tracking food thru the system. DO LOOK AT HER INSULIN. Humalog was to be a miracle insulin and actually was for those who could tolerate it but there were a lot of people who suffered a lot of gastric distress with it. Check the side effects of whatever insulin she is taking.

Could it be gastroparesis?

Meri: Have you asked your doc about Lantus? That is a long acting insulin without peaks and valleys in activity. It might work for you. Also, there is a variant of humalog called "Novalog". Since everybody is different, I do not know if this will help, but ask the doctor.

Necie: The changes required can be overwhelming. Be in close contact with your healthcare providers. Share problems you are having in following instructions. It takes a while to adjust! Make it your goal to be as healthy as possible. Early, good control can work in your favor. Squats

Stephanie: What are the protein and fat levels on this diet? The number of carbs makes sense.

To those who feel they need to lose weight and don't know how to do it. A low carb diet is a good way to go. This one is mine! 5 carbs-breakfast 3 carbs-lunch 4 carbs-dinner 3 carbs-late snack 15 grams is 1 carb If you think you'd like to try mine email me for details! I might be able to find some recipes for you since I work in a library!

After further thought on turning "blue" from Seasilver, I wonder if that anecdotal evidence against its use was not following directions! Vitamins cannot be consumed like the carbs in the food (fat) pyramid.
