I saw my new endo today. He basically said I am an ideal candidate for the pump. He had me see the trainer today. She had me put in a comfort set, which was ok, but I still think I want a 90 degree set. Then doctor signed the form. On my first visit.

He has no idea what type I am, but put me down as type 1 for now, told me I am definite not typical type 2, and told me even if blood work shows I'm type 2, I'm staying on pump. Yay!

I can't believe he signed form first visit, but he told me I am an ideal candidate, which was awesome.

If all goes well I'll be on insulin in two weeks.

Well first off congrats on the pump. And I think we must be twins because your story does sound very much the same as my story. I am sure tho you will enjoy that pump.

Yay!!!!

Congrats, I'm sure you'll enjoy pumping. You've definitely done your homework. I assume you got the Cozmo?

Yeah, the 90 degrees are better... but we've already been over that. :)

Congratulations! Soon you will be a member of the "Pumpers Club". My endo was the same way.......told him I wanted to go on the pump on a Thursday and Friday he had signed the paperwork and faxed it over to Mini Med. Within three weeks I was pumping!

I asked her what she is going to name her Cozmo and she hadn't come up with any thing yet. So lets help her out.

Suggestions:
Ol Drippy (what I named mine, so that's taken)
Lil Squirt

Others....???

Why, it's not returning of course. Lol. It's on the way from the factory to join me for the first time. To answer the obvious, of course.
