Thats OK Catie and Gail. The above thing is from Gail I just got it off of
the msg from Catie. I called the druggist and he said Prilosec and Aciphex
are both basically the same kind of drug. I have been taking the Aciphex for
about 3 days now. It is helping better than the Ranitidine (generic for
Zantac I think). Im not like on cloud 100 or anything just was hopeful. Ill
stick w/the Aciphex and see how it goes. Catie you are very lucky to have
success. Go for it!! Also you all please pray that my Insurance covers the
Aciphex. Im going to call them tomorrow and ask. My dr seemed to think it
wasnt covered but Im going to call them myself and find out. Take care you
two. Love, Chrissy

Chrissy,
Sorry to burst your bubble, but prilosec is not a miracle drug. Been on it
for years and it does help, but I cannot eat whatever I want or when I
want. It basically lowers the production of acid. I still have some foods
lie in my stomack for hours which really plays havoc with bgs. There is
nothing I can really do about when my stomach begins working. Was on
propulsid till it was taken off the market. Good bgs is about the only
thing I find that helps, but sometimes that is hard to acheive if the
stomach is not working an paralysis has set in for awhile.
Just my two cents worth and I am not trying to rain on your Mon. morning,
just giving you my facts.

<< I have not been posting much but I now have some very good news. I have
finally found a doctor that is informed and pro active. I was sent to the
diabetic education center two days ago and the nurse there suggested I might
want to upgrade to the new disetronic as it has delayed boluses (I am not
sure how to say this) for high fat meals. It has some other features that
look good.

Does anyone know about this pump? How would I upgrade?

I have to go and have an echo cardiagram with doppler, does anyone know what
this test is? It is for a heart murmur and I am having irregular heatbeats

and some mild chest pain. What should I expect for this test?

Hi Catie: Did you get the D-tron or the H-tron? fat in a meal delays or
actually slows down how fast you absorb glucose so your numbers stay high for
a longer period of time. Thus you can adjust for a temporary bolus that will
cover a longer period of time and not wake up with a # you don’t want to see.
Echocardiogram is a sonogram of your heart…looks at the action of the
valves as they work and to see if there is obvious obstruction. Next step is
a thallium stress test…..Joan:))))

I’m going to ask my Dr about that one!!!! Chrissy

I am a terrible example to follow. With Prilosec I can eat anything, drink soda
like a fiend, coffee is my constant companion and sleep like I always did. I
love that drug! I have had this since 1996.

<< With Prilosec I have no symptoms at all. Let me know if I can help.

Thanks Catie. Its a real pain in the butt kinda thing as you know. My
biggest thing I deal w/is a really bad barking cough. I also clear my throat
alot. I’ve had one really bad reflux episode. I was lying in bed and could
just feel it rise up so suddenly it woke me up out of a deep sleep. I
thought for sure I was going to loose my cookies. Have you changed your

eating habits at all? I gave up caffene which wasnt easy. I will have it
once in a while but hardly ever. I dont drink coffee anymore either. My one
weakness is soda. I know carbonated beverages are a problem. I try and
drink decaf tea. But I have no self control when it comes to soda. I love
my Diet Caffene Free Coke. I havent elevated my head when I sleep except
w/pillows. I was thinking about getting a wedge. I dont want my husband to
have to sleep that way too. How long have you had this? Chrissy

Catie,
Doppler tests are a piece of cake (no pun intended). You’ll do
fine! Usually, they have the machinery situated so you can’t see,
but some techs get really eager to show the screen to you if you have
a big smile and seem really curious, telling them that it must
take "a lot of skill and education to be able to do something so-o-o
complicated."
