Hi Rachel, 
I have never heard of a bionic Pancreas. What has your husbands Doctor said
about it? Do you have any other info.
Warmly, Joy

Hi, all.

 

My husband has been type I since just before his third birthday.

 

I've heard that there is a bionic pancreas that has been in existence since
the 90's, and got FDA approval in 2004. Does anyone know more about this,
the success rate, and where in the U.S. the procedure is being done?

 

Thanks so much.

Rachel
