Still, it's a weird thing when such a common occurrence as cold weather can really screw up the mechanics of an otherwise very well-engineered device like a car. The FDA is a bit stricter with medical devices (with good reason), but I think having a robust, competitive market in pumps goes a long way towards helping ensure this won't be the case. If you don't like Medtronic/Minimed, you can get a pump from J&J/Animas, Roche/Disetronic/Accu-Chek/Mendingo, or from Insulet, Nipro or even Sooil. Choice=lower prices and better quality products, while lack of choice usually means the opposite. Now, hopefully we'll someday have more choice from insulin suppliers, too!!Scott Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03286529314567223617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-38622451084816671922011-01-24T15:50:17.509-05:002011-01-24T15:50:17.509-05:00Phew!
