Testing Supplies

I’m wondering what type of testing supplies y’all are using. I’ve used all kinds, but after 6 years of working at my local Walmart pharmacy (I’m not working right now, but was working for Ruger, the gun manufacturer, before the cancer), I learned about Relion brand supplies.

Insulin Pumps

Two months ago, my doctor determined that I am a Type 1 diabetic. I was on long acting insulin at night and since that appointment had fast acting insulin added to my day.
