The 2 big mistakes in pumping -Reply

Frank-

I know from your other emails you have a MiniMed, doesn’t
yours give you the "No Delivery" alarm when you run out?
Mine does, so I would think yours would too. I always carry
a vial of insulin and a couple of syringes and infusion sets,
as well as a couple of regular syringes in case I can’t take
the time to change out the whole shebang. I use the
MedPort Travel Organizer and you can stuff a million things
in it. My fiance carries it for me frequently and no one looks
at him strangely if you’re worried about looking like you’re
carrying a "purse". I’m ready for almost any disaster you
can imagine anytime I’m away from home.

    No i have not seen that Janet, I have to take a look. I know if I was
    leaving the Island I would have had some supplies with me. :-) I will take a
    look at their site. I think I was a little distracted and did not hear the
    alarm till the second time it went off. Not very smart on my part I should
    no better.

    Good Idea Janet, I’ll have to try that. been on the pump for almost 6 weeks
    now, couldn’t be happier. I make sure I have batteries in my bag now. Left
    some at work which was a good idea, so it ran out of power and started
    beeping at me. Joan:)
