Re: [IP] 48 Hours show



And now for a few non-PC rhetorical questions......

Doesn't the 508 have a history of basals, boluses and the times when they 
were administered?

Does the 508 have to be reset when more is added to the cartridge or it is 
refilled?

Those of us who personally use(d) pumps let them out of our sight for how 
long even while sleeping?

Other than bottles, what's to clean up - isn't a pump cartridge a syringe 
minus needle?

How easy is it to control the timing of administration of whatever is in a 
pump?

If tubing was full, how long to clear all the insulin in it?

Having no personal knowledge, anyone know how effective a pump might be 
delivering other drugs?
     (Doubt anyone would be "bright" enough to admit personal experience)

How easy is it to learn to use a pump even if hooked to it for 24 hours a day?

And then there are the questions that may give some ideas.......

Though possibly high energy all replies are opinions and subject to 
personally acceptance or rejection.

bubble, bubble, .......
