Testimonials
Peggy kaplan Colorado, USA
I am delighted to know it's a regular credit card size calculator and am delighted you decided to make it now—it's long overdue. I had a pump for 12 years, so didn't need it, but now it'll be terrific. just ordered two!
Thanks so much for thinking about the non pump type 1 population. It's the most overlooked, ignored population in the US. Much luck to you, and thanks again for your thoughtfulness.

“We will be introducing the Calsulin to a focus group together with Accu-Chek's Bolus Calculator, and a bolus calculator code that is being written compatible with the Palm Pilot. Outside of the focus group's decision, we are interested in studying the effect Calsulin has on the glycemic control of our paediatric population.”

Mrs J.M Ryder (DNS) Diabetes & Endocrine Centre Royal Bournemouth Hospital
“We run a structured education programme for people with type 1 diabetes at the Diabetes Centre at the Royal Bournemouth Hospital. The course is based around CHO counting and insulin dose adjustment.
I wondered if you would be kind enough to send us a CALSULIN so that we can see in practice how useful it may be. In this way we can see whether it is something that would be of use during our sessions or not”

Mr. Bason, My wife was just diagnosed with type one diabetes. The most confusing part is figuring out the dosage before each meal.The book to look it up then figure the rescue amount etc. I starting looking for something that would simplify the process and came across this web site. http://www.healthcentral.com/diabetes/c/7811/11607/comments
What a great thing this is and would go a long way to make this easier for her.
Can you please tell me if these are still available and if so how I may buy one.
Thank you for your time.

Chartered Health Psychologist
“As a health psychologist specialising in diabetes, I have expertise in the evaluation of new treatments and technologies from the patients’ perspective, in terms of psychological or patient-reported outcomes (PROs). It is clear to me that there are many benefits to be derived from your insulin dose calculator, particularly if there are interested in adjusting their insulin doses to suit their choice of food and food-timings. One of the key benefits to be derived might, for example, be satisfaction, which can only be assessed reliably and validly in groups by use of standardised questionnaires”.

“I came across your web site while researching type 1 diabetes. I have not been able to find a distributor locally. My 10 year old nephew has been newly diagnosed with Juvenile type 1. I would like to be able to purchase one for my family. I was in hopes you could direct me . Can I purchase one direct or do we have to go through a distributor. Thank you for your time.”

Got it from this site:- http://www.diabeticshop.co.uk/insulin%2 ... 0bags.html. Sorry dont know how to bring the link across!
Scroll down to bottom to calsulin.
I find it is good for Scott and it makes him take more interest in formula for working out his insulin (must be boys with their gadgets!hahaha).
I want to trust it and as its calculations are near mine, if not more accurate, I think I would let Scott go by it if I wasn’t there.

I have a group of diabetes educators meeting here at Diabetes WA on the 17th of November and I am hoping you would be able to supply a sample of Calsulin for that meeting for the educators to review. The educators are all hospital based in Perth and I am based at Diabetes WA.
