Smile Hello there

Hey I'm a new member and the forums home page told me to introduce myself. so Hi I'm Kramer and I am an Insulin-aholic!
I'm a member of a family that hit the genitic lottery. Me and my only sibling are diabetic (type 1) as well as 3 of my aunts and uncles (all type 1). I was diagnosed with it my freshmen year, November 15, 2001. I've been using a minimed pardigim 522 for about a year and a half and just started using a minilink RT CGMS which brought me here looking for help using it, I got the help and decided to stick around for the fun!

There are lot of opinions here and we could use more.
Glad you were helped
