Juggling life and diabetes

Stephanie lives to help other people. She always has. She volunteers her time working with the disabled and cares for her autistic daughter full time. Stephanie was understandably upset when she learned she would need to add managing diabetes to her already full schedule.

At first, the diagnosis frightened her. There were so many things to do, and so many other people to care for that Stephanie wasn’t sure how she would manage. Daily insulin injections made things even worse.

Stephanie was looking for something new.

  • Carrying around all of her supplies and remembering injections was a burden
  • She was concerned her diabetes would get in the way of caring for her adult daughter with special needs

Starting life on V-Go

“Wearing the V-Go device is really not a big deal for me.”

Stephanie found her solution when she read about a new, once-daily insulin delivery device that is worn like a patch. She drove 30 miles to meet with an endocrinologist to learn more about V-Go. They thought V-Go was a good option for her.

Steady as we V-Go

“I’m really pleased with my numbers. They’re much steadier.”

Today, Stephanie says her A1c levels are steadier, and V-Go helps keep her consistent.

V-Go has helped Stephanie.

  • Convenience. Stephanie can travel distances or just around town without as many supplies
  • Puts her mind at ease. She feels more secure when caring for her daughter
  • Fits her lifestyle. She can still volunteer and make rounds at assisted living facilities
  • Simple. Stephanie doesn’t have to lug as many insulin supplies everywhere she goes
  • Keeps her steady and consistent. Her numbers are more even throughout the day

Now, every time she meets another person with diabetes, she sends them to the V-Go website to learn how they might experience the life-changing convenience and contentment she’s found.

Important Risk Information

If regular adjustments or modifications to the basal rate of insulin are required in a 24-hour period, or if the amount of insulin used at meals requires adjustments of less than 2-Unit increments, use of the V-Go Wearable Insulin Delivery Device may result in hypoglycemia. The following conditions may occur during insulin therapy with V-Go: hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) or hyperglycemia (high blood glucose). Other adverse reactions associated with V-Go use include skin irritation from the adhesive pad or infections at the infusion site. V-Go should be removed before any magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) testing.
