hello all!
It's been a while since I first saw the insuling pumps around- the promise was almost sci-fi: no more insulin shots, just tell the pump how many carbs you're eating, etc.

Did anyone heard of this medtronic insulin pump?

Hi All,
I've had Type 1 diabetes for four years now, and am STILL having troubles properly regulating it with shots throughout the day. My Dr. suggested I try out the Medtronic Insulin pump. My husband and I are thinking of having a child in the next year or so and want my numbers to be tight, to ensure a healthy pregnancy.
Question is, has anyone been on this system -- and, if so, how has

Just found this forum -- I'm very excited with all of the info here!

I haven't had any complications until recently: I ca

My doctor said that I have this thing called rebounding hyperglycemia, where I'm high, so then I get a lot of insulin, get low(esp. when exercising), so then my liver releases sugar into my blood and I get really high again. We think we came up with a good plan that will fix it. There is also another name for, named after the doctor. I can't remember the exact name, but it starts with an S. Has

Hi,
I am looking for some information on insulin pumps and was wondering if there is anyone out there to give me a hand. Right now I am on the Medtronic Minimed 512 insulin pump and I want to upgrade to the 522 with the Continous Blood Glucose System and I want more information with people that are on it.
