So, knowing there are some new pumpers in our blogging community, I thought it would be helpful to them to know what to pay attention to. I tried the IV Preps when I first started, but they didn't work for me, I forget why now. My skin is sensitive, I think it had something to do with that.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16585858360942337904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25436103.post-50500921742717434012007-04-20T14:50:00.000-04:002007-04-20T14:50:00.000-04:00BTW, I used Smith + Nephew IV Preps, not Skin Prep...BTW, I used Smith + Nephew IV Preps, not Skin Preps.

I did create that in a table in word, but for some reason when I copy and pasted it the lines didn't copy. <BR/><BR/>Bernard,<BR/>Yeah, I was feeling pretty lousy for the until I broke out of the high numbers. I know with the sensor anything other than alcohol if it gets on the end of the sensor (especially if it has that lovely glycerin and sorbitol in it) can make the readings inaccurate which is why only alcohol is to be used under them.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16585858360942337904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25436103.post-15315954065781872442007-04-04T09:04:00.000-04:002007-04-04T09:04:00.000-04:00YikesThose are some scary numbers, I'll bet you fe...Yikes<BR/><BR/>Those are some scary numbers, I'll bet you felt lousy.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the warning about these skin preps.

He'll go in the 200's fooling us into thinking that he's going through a growth spurt, and we'll change his set that night and the next day see beautiful numbers.<BR/><BR/>Nothing more refreshing than a good day of numbers!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11082031887238694358noreply@blogger.com
