INSULIN PUMPERS July Meeting: Open Discussion

San Diego Insulin Pumpers
Mutual Support - General Discussion - Expert Speakers
All pumpers, companions, and friends welcome!

Don't Miss the JULY meeting of the San Diego Insulin Pumpers!!!

THIS MONTH: Open Discussion
MEETING TIME:  Monday July 8th 7:00-8:30 pm
LOCATION:  Sharp Medical Facility
8695 Spectrum Centre Blvd, Room 186

THIS MONTH: Open Discussion. Bring your questions, diabetes concerns, and successes to share with the group.

LAST MONTH: Chloe Diez, the Afrezza Rep, discussed ways to use inhaled insulin as an adjunct to pumped insulin, either in the event a prebolus is inconvenient or for safer and faster corrections for better time-in-range. Chloe told us they have a $15 copay card now for people on ‘commercial insurance’— i.e., not Medicare.

Tom’s Two-Minute Tip was an introduction to Dexcom’s Clarity tools. He talked about compatibility with G4, G5, and G6, then teased the types of information available in the various reports. In future meetings, Tom will circle back to one report at a time, finding the unique actionable information in each.

Pre-Meeting Dinner (Souplantation): Several of us get together about 5:30 pm before each meeting for dinner, and all are welcome! Anyone who would like a bite of dinner before the meeting can join us at the Souplantation Restaurant in Kearny Mesa, 7095 Clairemont Mesa Boulevard (just east of 805), 858-715-6824.

Please be ready to leave the restaurant by 6:45 pm and proceed to Sharp so that our speakers and non-dining members are not delayed.

As always, significant others, friends, and family supporters are always welcome at the meeting. Our meetings are held the 2nd Monday of every month.
