  • well,has lucy ever done shots?if so,do you prefer the pump?im 15 years old,diabetic since 12,and always been on shots but i have several hypos,and im considering a pump but im not sure...any advice?

  • @Maayyytee We did shots for 3 months before starting the pump. We love the pump. No more shots and we have much, much better control of her blood sugar. I highly recommend it!

  • what brand is her pump?

  • @Maayyytee We use the Medtronic Minimed Paradigm Revel with integrated Continuous Glucose Monitor. We love it.

  • How old was she when she was dx? She's absolutely adorable and so strong. Good luck to you and yours! :)

  • @EmilyofREL Thanks! She was diagnosed when she was only 13 months old. She's 2 years and 4 months old now and doing really, really well. Good luck to you too!

  • thats much stuff. she have the same lancing device as me ( accu chek multiclix ) poor lucy

  • @Tiera20100 I really like the accu chek multiclix. We've used it from day 1 and Lucy's never cried once. We use the Aviva and I really like it. The test strips are so much easier to handle. They're even large enough that Lucy can put them in herself. They also don't seem to require as much blood so we're wasting fewer strips on "not enough blood" errors. We used a One Touch ultra for a little while, but ended up switching back to the Aviva because the test strips are so much easier to handle.

  • @LittleLucysLife Thanks so much I will look today is the accu chek multiclix a good lancing device because with the one touch i have it on the lowest setting and it still goes in to deep and she cry even if it is on her finger or toe so they told me i could do her heel. Does that meter give very accurate readings because i got one in the bag of hope but never used it.

  • @Tiera20100 The pink box came from Walmart...in the craft department with beads and things. It works really well for organizing the essentials. I'm so sorry that your baby girl was diagnosed with diabetes too. Good luck to you and if you ever need advice or have questions, just let me know!
