My endo put me in touch with someone who has not returned phone calls, and generally did nothing to deserve earning a commission on sales of a $7,000 device (I'm considering the Paradigm Realtime pump/CGM system) and I'll be darned to just hand the commission over to this guy. Anyway, if you have the name and phone for the person you dealt with, that would be helpful (I'm in NYC also).

He's been on a Minimed pump for over 3 years.<BR/><BR/>He got the Real-Time CGMS about 2 months ago and that is really fantastic! <BR/><BR/>The other thing that has helped us the most is weighing foods and figuring out exact carbs. I explain it in my blog if you are interested.

Oh well, that's what the skins are for I guess. :) I love the reasoning behind the purple pump. Maybe someday they will offer an orange one and you could have one of each... He, he, he. If they'd had orange when I got my pump, that's what I would have gotten. It's my favorite color.Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09108867545803896885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523416326400575666.post-24046335457054934472007-07-06T09:32:00.000-07:002007-07-06T09:32:00.000-07:00I think purple was a great choice.

Anyway - good choice!<BR/><BR/>You know, I don't think they gave me a choice of colors when I got my pump last year. :( If they did, I would have chosen purple, too. Oh well, I keep mine in a pump pack anyway. But maybe when I upgrade in a few years, who knows what choices we will have then!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03072030400404976772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523416326400575666.post-82444806257273245962007-07-06T09:25:00.000-07:002007-07-06T09:25:00.000-07:00My pump is purple too, but it's a Cozmo, and it's ...My pump is purple too, but it's a Cozmo, and it's more acceptable for a 20 (at the time, now 21) year old female to have a purple pump ;)<BR/><BR/>I've had mine about 15 months and love it too.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564731989568599206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523416326400575666.post-79303823036588240062007-07-06T08:55:00.000-07:002007-07-06T08:55:00.000-07:00That is a good reason to go with Purple.

We have a Wii (that sounds funny) and we love it! The whole Familii! <BR/><BR/>Let me know if you have one so I can add you to my address book. WE have lots of Mii's that love to travel to Mii parades all over the world!Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508213573891885604noreply@blogger.com
