Countdown!!

Right here, Right now, I've just decided to start a couple countdowns.

DAYS UNTIL:
Spaghetti dinner: 1
Best Buddies End of the Year Party: 3
Boyfriends birthday: 7
SDSU trip: 7
Senior Prom: 22
Graduation(!!!): 42

SO, in an update on my shingles status, I just realized why they prescribed the painkillers, because I'm really hurting right now.
Also, the PKs (painkillers) are making me a bit out of it, because I am making typos and stupid errors all over the place.



Now on to something a bit more relevant to my blog:
The OMNIPOD.
I want to know all of your (if any of "you" are even there) stories, reviews, nightmares, likes, dislikes, whatevs, about the OmniPod. My insurance allows me to get a new pump in 5.5 (count them) months. Oooh. I'll add that to my countdown :]

Days until new Insulin PUMP: 165

I want to know if any of you know if there's going to be an upgrade soon on the OmniPod, you know, slimmer, CGM included, and a PDM that doesn't look like it popped out of the 90s.

I want to hear about your CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor), too!!
You see, I have this issue where I'm really shy about my diabetes, there are only a few people who I let watch me test, inject, etc. Does anybody else feel that way? Anyway, I sometimes let the care of my diabetes slip down my priorities list if I cannot do it in private. Truthfully, until the past 2 months, I probably only used my glucometer 5 times tops a month. I took some insulin, but not even close to enough (my A1C was ABOVE 14!! can you believe that?), I would drive somewhere and not know how I got there, I'd feel so badly during class I would have to excuse myself and just sit, hunched in a ball in the corner of a bathroom stall until my head would stop spinning.
Yeah, I know. horrible. But I'm working on it, diabetes is a top priority now, but it's still a work in progress.
So to link this to the CGM, I think it would really help me maintain my diabetes, thats why I want to hear about yours! (If you're even out there).


Well, I know I left out a bunch of info about this blog. If you're confused, let me know, shoot me a comment.


And of course.. I have to ask
is any one listening?
