[Diabetes-Talk] V-Go

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,


Has anyone here ever heard of V-Go?

If so, does anyone here use it?


I learned about this while searching for something else on the internet, 
earlier today. I've never heard of it before.

However, I am very interested in it. I plan to talk to my doctor about 
it, and see if it might be right for me.


 From what I understand, it's a device you wear, and it continuously 
delivers fast-acting insulin. Also, for meals, you can press a button, 
and it will deliver 2 units at a time. But you can continually press it, 
if you need more insulin than this.

Also, you change the system out every day.


I definitely would like to have this, if the doctor thinks it could help 
me. Also, if I could use it pretty easily, being totally blind. They 
state that it is covered by Medicare part D. So this is definitely a plus.


I hope someone knows what I am talking about. I'd be very interested in 
hearing what you all think.


Thank you,


Terri
