[QUOTE="smc4761, post: 917680, member: 119069"] OMG, I love this thred, it brought bck so many memeories many of which had forgetten about. I remebr during urine tset, I was diagnosedin 1981, the glass syringes, was it not industrial meths we had to use, not meths to keep the needles clean. Insulatard insulin which was porcine and cloudy as my basal insulin. For some reason cannot remember the blood test strips where we hd to wait for a minute before getting the results. Disposable syringes was also a big deal back in the day. Just think in about 15 yeas or so someone may start a similar thread laughing at us using insulin pumps and pricking our fingers to test our blood sugars Having given it some thought makes me wonder how I managed to survive the first 10/15 years with so few hypos and remain in reasonably good health Now if we have come so far in about 35 years, what do the next 35 years have in store for us. What dramatic improvements can we see. Personally i like the sound of the Freestyle Libre which hopefully will be available for all soon [/QUOTE]
