I've not been to the Joslin center, but have heard good things. I'm on the south end, so I'm going to see a new endo on Monday who's associated with St. Francis Hospital. I hate driving into Seattle, so I avoid it like the plague! LOL I highly *don't* recommend the UWDCC. They've changed their policies and theories in the past year and have become militant about treating their patients like 2 year-olds.

Could the stress of just moving to Seattle be why you are having higher numbers? Maybe once you're into a routine everything will improve? Do you happen to have the weird flu bug that's going around up here? I'm sick now so my numbers are consistently higher than normal and that drives me crazy!!!

You can't apply til January? That sucks! If I had to wait until January, I'd have to pay an extra $500 deductible for my pump. Glad I don't have to do that now! If you need names of any pump friendly endos up there, let me know. Dewey actually referred me to one, but he wasn't available til December... The one I'm now going to was referred to me by one of the pharmacy techs at the pharmacy I go to...she's been on a pump for over 6 years. Anyhow, PM me if you want Dewey's suggested endo.
