[danik70]

good,easy

[andy957]

GREAT JOB!! Question: did it really hurt when you inserted the needle (I saw the "Ouch" comment but thought maybe you were kidding)? Or did you not even feel it?

Thanks for this video, I'm much older than you but am starting on this pump next week and you really made me understand better how it works.

[xBenHammondzz]

@andy957 if you put it in a fatty part if your stomach it doesn't hurt but if you put it in a thinner part like by your muscle or just a thinner part it does hurt a little and watch out for veins cause it hurts a little when you get a vein and will bleed a little

[iceland3211]

Your doing great job with that pump kid. But I noticed you were Swollen on your left side, and you inserted your infusion set there. you should try to move sites everytime. you should even try to put it on your leg, if your swollen on both sides of your belly.

But there´s one thing I want to mention, you complied that the infusion set hurted a bit. Then you should try to get sets with smaller needles. Over longterm it damages the nerves in the muscles if they always get so deep.

"they just compete for prices" Wow your on it youngster! I finally got on a pump yesterday and its been the greatest 24 hours in 23 years of being an type 1 diabetic! Nice video. This shows that if young people can do it so can an adult. I got diagnosed at 10 years old and we didnt have pumps or the new types of insulin we have today. Keep up the great work till we find a cure! Theres one comming, we've got to believe!!!

[putsipa]

@SydeshowMO what kind of cure is coming :) i really wanna know :)

[iceland3211]

@putsipa Temperory "cure". there is a big study going on right now. Which is that they implant BETA-cells into peoples pancreas and around 40-50% of the diabetics didnt need insulin for about 2 years or only just very litle. but some others cells just vanished away in a few months. So this is still in a test state

[putsipa]

@iceland3211 Thats pretty nice :) Hope for best

[Bbfishman]

wat a sweet mom. He seems like a great kid, strong and well adjusted yet still polite. Sorry for your situation, but it seems like you dont let it stop you from being an active kid.

[seafenix]

Very informative! Proper terminology and a better lesson than my endocrinologist gave. 5 Stars!

[lukey98760]

My friend is diabetic and he has the pump. But he has a diffrent patch.

[shookwood]

So Medtronic doesn't sell pre-filled reservoirs?

[passion171]

@shookwood no they do not

[SUSSTURUCU]

No no no...

I don't like these pumps...

I think big electronic companies must develop these pumps..

i think these pumps are very dangerous for ketoasidozis and i can't trust it

[amg1099]

yeah i was wondering why he didn't change the infusion site. where else can he put it though? can this be put on arms, butt, legs?

[passion171]

@amg1099 yes it can be put on your legs butt and arms

[youmo07]

MY DOCTER WONT LEAT ME USE THE INSULIN PUMP

[cherrylovecoke]

OMG I LOVE YOUR SKIN ON THE PUMP! Mines Peacock feathers :) lol

[tisherbug27]

Great video kiddo. I'm 31 and (hopefully) getting my own Minimed pump soon. You are easier to understand than the 3 different Endo's I've seen. Take care! :)

[keff02]

good video flapjack. i had to stop using quicksets as most of the time they would bend at the tip after 1 day and my minimed p 522 would say no delivery... (not good)... so i find the silhouette infusion sets much better as they go under the skin (flat) and not inwards

[norwayheroo]

in norway you get insulin and stuff you need for free intil youre 16 years old including insulin pump

[wmistressw]

Thank you for teaching a 27 year old student nurse what a 300$ skills book couldn't. :) Thx to you too mom!!! Good Luck God bless!!!

[Computerfreak144]

Nice Skin! Is it from Medtronic? I have my skin for my insulin pump from Medtronic.

[TypeOneDiabeticc]

i love your pump cover where did you get it?

[ryan44ryan]

I highly reccomend moving to a mio infusion set. Theyre much smaller and painless to insert.

[imbatman225]

You need to move the site around your starting to get scar tissue there and it takes 2 weeks + to get rid of

[legobdr]

I'm only 8 I was

[legobdr]

I just got my pump it is way better than getting shots I was used to my shots but still

[sweetbirdy17]

Thank you so much for doing this video!! it was very clear and informative. I am a nurse in a hospital and I was looking for a demonstration to be more informed about how my pts apply and use their insulin pumps. After watching this I feel MUCH more informed on the subject. Thank you again, this video was great! =)

[runnerboy12341]

i have those boxers

[E99naithe]

Do u use 150 or 300 unit resevoir and I use the exact same pump :)

[d103cc]

Just to help with the terms you never change the pump you change the site or infusion set. how do you like the minimed. i am deciding over that or animas!

thanks

[zach950]

Jack, Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate how you use the pump. I'm going tomorrow for my pump training...and watching you has made me feel so much better about this. I'm 60, so you'd think this wouldn't make me nervous, but watching how you handle this is very inspiring. Many thks again...and all the best to you. (thk mom for handling the camera). zach

[bReNtOs1236]

Where did you get your pump skin from? I like the one you have on yours

[likeyourvidthanks101]
