Shopping

The warranty on my pump expires on the 11th of January, and knowing my knack for mishaps (the x-ray incident comes to mind) I’ve been scouring the diabetes webiverse in search of a new model. It’s a complicated process that should go like this: - Does it work? - Who made it? - Do I need that feature? - How long is the warranty? - How much am I going to have to pay for this? - Is my health insurance going to cover this now or am I going to have to wait an extra year with no warranty? Instead this happens… “Is it pretty? LOOK A COLOUR SCREEN! Hmmmm, I don’t know about that warranty length. BUT LOOK AT THE COLOURFUL GRAPHS!” If I have a poor quality pump next year (albeit with stunning graphics and sleek design), you'll know why.
