Okay, so the weekly updates really didn't happen this summer. But that's okay. I'll be updating a bit more frequently over the next month because I'm going to have another Month of Sensors.
Last time I'd forgotten about a box of sensors. This time around I need to use up two boxes of sensors! Back in April, just after getting my new pump, I received an offer from Minimed; for (I think) $300 I could get one of the new, much smaller transmitters and two boxes of sensors! So I got it, at the very least so when I eventually move out I can set up sensors without anyone's help. I wanted to do some sensors in the late spring, but my diabetes nurse recommended that I wait until I get all of my pump settings reset.
Of course, now I have about a month to use up 8 sensors. So I pulled out my new transmitter, which is completely awesome! Not only is it super tiny, but it also has a rechargable battery! I had a bit of trouble with the first sensor (it's been so long since I've put one in, that I had some trouble with it hurting), but it is now successfully up and running! I'm loving the new transmitter - I don't feel like I'm part robot while wearing it.
