ashling 0 #1 August 31, 2005 I'm diabetic since 1992, using a pump for 2 years and counting (www.insulin-pumpers.org helped me get my life back), soon to be a one-jump-skydiver. Where do you wear the pump when you're jumping? Does it ever get in the way of the straps? Do you change your basal rate before the jump? Do your sugars tend to rise or fall during the jump? If you jump without your pump do you go high? Just curious Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdrejhon 8 #2 September 1, 2005 Try searching 'diabetic' in the Search textbox at the upper-right corner of this web document. This link was interesting reading: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1648919 Not diabetic here, but I happened to notice this when it was posted in June.

Hans 0 #3 September 2, 2005 My wife is diabetic and uses a pump. She removes it before every jump because of the fluctuation of her sugar when she jumps. If you would like to talk to her call Skydive The Farm anytime ask for Sandy. The Farm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
