Guest guest Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 My Endocrinologist is in the process of putting me on an insulin pump. It is a Medtronic pump. It's cool. The version coming out next year will be able to do continuous blood sugar monitoring through the pump as well. It is the same principal as the 72 hour continuous blood sugar monitoring that is available at this time. It will just be incorporated into the new pump. My question is: Is anyone currently on an insulin pump? If so, which one? And, how is ti going?

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Hi Karyn, Yes. I am on an Insulin pump! It is a Medtronic 511 and I have had it for almost 3 years. I love the freedom that it affords me and I don't miss the 6-8 injections everyday !! Any other questions just ask and I will be glad to share what knowledge I have! Love, Cyndi J. (in SC) PS have been diabetic for 14 years and the insulin has given me the best control. Also when I got it my insurance was Maxed out so I had to pay nothing !!
