Archive for the ‘Insulin for Diabetics’ Category

I’m writing a story about a teen with diabetes. He carries an insulin pump. Now I know a lot about diabetes itself like the fact the body cannot produce insulin and When you get a hypo you feel tired dizzy and moody and to get yourself on track you eat something thats high on carbs without covering it with insulin, but I don’t know all the parts of the pump. I also need to know… Do you still prick your fingers if you have a pump, and why and how many times a day?

i know they are both related but doesn’t an insulin resistance mean u have diabetes?
