I posted last month about bubbles getting in to faulty reservoirs, and now this!?! I couldn't believe it! I pulled my pump out to bolus and noticed that my tubing was coming out of my pump at a strange angle, a 90 degree angle in fact. I pulled out the reservoir to take a closer look and found that it had broken.
The tubing (I learned from this incident) has two parts, an inner soft thin tube, and an outer hard (relatively hard) shell. What happened was that the outer harder shell snapped but the inner tubing looked like it was in tact (although I find it hard to believe because of those bubbles you can see going down the tubing).
I was of course at work when this happened, so I had to keep the girls occupied with the TV so I could sneak off to the bathroom for a few minutes and redo my set.
Well, as you all know, life goes on. Another day, another reservoir, hat's just the rhythm of diabetes....it just keeps on going.
Anyway, that Is my rant for the day. Also I just updated the last week worth of my Diabetes 365 photos on flickr. I plan to start updating these directly from my phone on a daily basis so there shouldn't be anymore 7-day-at-a-time uploads.
