I decided, as I always do before a trip, to fill up my insulin pump before we took off.
And the pump, for the very first time, after many years of service, malfunctioned.
I got to a certain place in the programming for insertion of new insulin, when the pump told me to revert back and rewind.
I tried many times to no avail.
Since I couldn't go to Bakersfield to see the doctor without insulin and since injecting it the old fashioned way would be a challenge if I hit the road right after, not being sure if I took the right amount and so on.
So I cancelled my appointment and will call the doctor today.
I will let you know what happens and I thank you for your concern about the well being of my heart.
No one in my family had any heart issues and I've always had, as a cardiologist once told me, "A great heart!"
So I will let you know, thanks for your concern, you are good friends, for sure.
💜 Thinking of you.

ReplyDeleteSounds like that visit is going to be needed for other reasons! Wishing you all the best for it. YAM xx
The insulin issue is certainly an obstacle! I hope you get it resolved quickly. And the heart issues, too.
ReplyDeletethat would have frustrated me so bad... when I get upset about things like that, my dementia visits and I can't remember how to do simple things like put the lid down on the coffee pot and be awaked when it goes off howling like a wolf. I hope you can get an online visit, no need to drive there, you can sit face to face on your chrome book
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - it just stopped after years of service. Well, don't let it stop you from taking care of your heart. Try to get things working girl. Thanks for letting us know!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! It couldn't happen at a worse time. But maybe there was a reason that we don't know. Maybe you could have gotten in a wreck or something...
ReplyDeleteHope things get worked out for you!!!
ReplyDeleteHope all works out when you can get to see the cardiologist. And you get that pump working well.
ReplyDeleteOh dear ...
ReplyDeleteThinking of you and hope things get sorted for you.
Sending lots of good wishes to you.
All the best Jan
