Got a good report at the clinic. No weight loss. My numbers have settled down. I have to keep the PICC line for another month. Grrr! I got Corndogs. Yay!! ---

> [@TruCelt](#): > > I think she wants to be rid of the [PICC line](https://www.careandwear.com/pages/what-is-a-picc-line), not the CGM. Ohhhh. Read it through too fast earlier. Yes, getting rid of the PICC line would be a good thing. ---

Yep. PICC line stays in for awhile. I disagreed. Did no good. But Doctor and Nurse were both happy with my bout of good numbers. I’m pretty happy myself. My outlook has greatly improved. Thanks guys for all your well wishes. Love you guys! ---

You’ll need to flush the PICC line with Saline regularly. Keep it open. My 1st cousin had one for her cancer treatment. They left it in, just in case. She got sick several months later and hospitalized. The nurses tried everything to flush out that line. My cousin got an IV (after multiple sticks) and was pretty disappointed. ---

Yep. I’ve had it a coupla weeks. I’ve got all the flushing and keeping dry instructions down pat. I’ve had lines in previously too. ---

I love my Corndogs. As a lifelong diabetic I get on addiction level food weirdness-es. I’ve gone through many things like this. If I can save up my carbs and have access to the ingredient list I can have them. Good thing the nearest Sonic isn’t close. I would have a big problem on my hands. ---

^^^BTW, my nutritionist agrees with you. She’s always harshing on my Corndog mellow! ---
