Hungary
Hi Diana
You asked me about medical care in Hungary. I can say that I’m lucky
in this case, because I had and I have very good doctors. My present
doctor is one of the best specialists in Hungary. In spite of this
fact I heard about pumps you can use continously last year. When I was
diagnosed in 1986 (I was 14 years old) I used a pump for about two
weeks in the hospital. In that time there was only one pump in that
hospital and I think there weren’t more than 4-5 pieces in the whole
country. The pump you use works probably similar, but it is more
advanced, I think. The treatment of diabetes is very expensive. I get
full assistance for my Insulin because I need to give me more than 5
times a day by Pen (NovoPen). Many people have to pay for their
Insulin injection (particular percent of the full price). How is it in
the U.S.? The Pens and the injections are popular kinds of treatment
in Hungary at this time.
Could you explain me in brief how works this pump? Doses it at
continuously some insulin? Measure it the actually blood sugar level,
too?
Bye
