Insulin Pumps 2




Well this weekend I have been on a saline pump, to get me used to the pump and all the neat features that come with it. Found out that it is 100% covered once I meet all the requirements of my insurance company. I also need to get off my but and find the letter from my insurance company in Washington to prove that I had prior coverage to waive the 6 month pre-existing clause that my current insurance company has. It should make things a lot easier once I get used to having a needle more or less stuck in me with tubing from the needle to the pump device that is like carrying around a pager, but I don't have to take an injection every time I need to lower my blood sugar, or want to eat a snack. I just have to change every 2-3 days the site that the quick-set is inserted. On Monday I will be getting the actual insulin in the pump, and once everything goes through with my insurance I will have my own pump and will be able to return the loaner pump. Thank you for all prayers. God Bless Michelle
