I joined this forum for purely selfish reasons. I'm looking for a way around Medicare's C-peptide restriction. I'm taking 5 shots a day even though my C-peptide indicates that I manufacture too much insulin of my own.
I have been T! since June of 1956. Because of my crazy schedule and fluctuating levels of activity, my blood sugars are all over the place: high this year of 416 and low of 41 with an average of 147.9.
My Endo says that I should be on a pump but, because of my C-peptide, I'd have to pay for it myself. This won't work while living off Soc. Sec.
