DAS

[ttintagel]

I almost exclusively use the upper arm for my Dexcom sensor, and one of the things it took me the longest to train myself to remember to do was to check which arm I had it on before having my blood pressure taken!

I think backing up CGM readings with an occasional finger stick at WDW is a great idea, even if you don't do it at home. You can't be too careful, especially given how easy it is to mistake the symptoms of a high or low with those of overheating, overstimulation, dehydration, and general fatigue.

Hi everyone! We’re going to DW in a few months and I’m really nervous about being turned down for a DAS! I’ve been on their list since 1999 with disabilities. I have severe anxiety that I’m on meds for, I have mobility issues and I also suffer with hyperhidrosis that I’m on meds for. I’m hearing that they’re turning everyone down! I don’t know what I’ll do if I’m turned down! Any advice?

Off topic, but if you're willing to answer - can you tell me what you take for hyperhidrosis and if you like it? I've suffered with this my whole life but have always been too embarrassed to even talk to my doctor about it.
