A discussion of the 670G, and how it "works" when it doesn't work.
00:00 - 00:05 | So Nicky got a new pump. |
00:05 - 00:07 | Everyone says it the next best thing! |
00:07 - 00:10 | They told her it can automatically adjust your insulin |
00:11 - 00:16 | based on your blood sugar. |
00:17 - 00:21 | And she believed them! |
00:21 - 00:24 | She thought it was true! |
00:29 - 00:31 | True! |
00:31 - 00:34 | She really thought it was true! |
00:38 - 00:40 | Always adjusting her basal.... |
00:41 - 00:47 | by turning it off! |
00:47 - 00:50 | And it doesn't even tell you |
00:50 - 00:56 | that it is doing it! |
00:58 - 00:59 | Yes, it was approved.... |
00:59 - 01:01 | to stop giving you insulin! |
01:04 - 01:06 | Who needs insulin? |
01:06 - 01:08 | Sorry Nicky, not you! |
01:13 - 01:14 | We give you insulin |
01:14 - 01:16 | only when we want! |
01:16 - 01:20 | And we don't ever tell you. |
01:21 - 01:27 | The way you find out |
01:35 - 01:36 | is when your sensor |
01:36 - 01:39 | says you are too high! |
01:41 - 01:44 | So this new pump, |
01:44 - 01:47 | you wear it like this |
01:47 - 01:49 | on your hip. |
01:50 - 01:53 | Just like any other pump. |
01:54 - 01:56 | But this pump, |
01:56 - 01:58 | is not really like any other pump, |
01:58 - 02:02 | because it will STOP giving you insulin |
02:05 - 02:07 | whether you need it... |
02:10 - 02:11 | or not! |
02:11 - 02:13 | And if you go to 300 |
02:15 - 02:17 | and call them to complain... |
02:17 - 02:20 | they just say it's your fault! |
02:21 - 02:28 | You must be doing something wrong! |
02:29 - 02:30 | You... |
02:30 - 02:32 | have made a mistake! |
02:36 - 02:39 | But we will send you... |
02:40 - 02:42 | send you a new sensor. |
02:50 - 02:55 | Oh thanks, Medtronic! |
02:56 - 02:58 | A new sensor fixes everything! |
02:58 - 03:04 | I guess now we will no longer will have to |
03:04 - 03:09 | worry about global warming, |
03:09 - 03:11 | as long as we get a new sensor! |
03:16 - 03:20 | So this thing, they call it "Auto" Mode. |
03:23 - 03:26 | But really they should call it |
03:31 - 03:36 | "Screw You" Mode! |
