Yoga with a CGM

Hi,

I just started a new group called "Yoga with a CGM", to give people a place to discuss their challenges and successes with placement and other issues that come up in a regular yoga practice. If this interests you, please check out Yoga with a CGM.

Great idea. I am a yoga instructor and wear imsulin pump and getting CGM one of these days. Do you like the dexcom?

Hi Lisa, welcome! If you haven’t already, please join my group, Yoga with a CGM.

I do like the dexcom. Except for days like today when I inserted a sensor that keeps glancing my oblique muscle and giving me “???” (Dexcom for, “I don’t understand the info I’m getting”). If the readings don’t come back within 3 hours, they’ll send ma a replacement sensor. I’m not pumping yet, I’m waiting for the animas integrated pump/CGM to come out sometime within a year.

Where do you wear your pump?

First…how do I join the group?
Second, I wear my pump on my pants and the tubing is easiily manuvered to change the pump from one side to antother. Not many students say a word about it. I love it…except for today…my cat ripped it out of my insertion site and I was unaware until I had 300 plus BG. It took me most the day to get s ugars down and feel better. Yoga has pretty much saved my life. 40 years type 1.

Crazy cat! Glad to hear you are feeling better. I’m only 20 years with type 1. Yoga has definitely helped with my control.
