Hi Candy
RobertI got on the pump about 3 years ago and I wish they would have been out sooner because as theyupgraded the technoligy, it is gettig even better. I was resistant to get on the pump at first because having diabetes for all mylife, I have seen every piece of tech they ever came up with and the first pumps were the size of a brick and were very noisy, plus I felt it would limit me. After my heart attack ad surgeries, I asked abotu the pump and was very impressed with what they have now.
The pump has it's good and bads, but to be honest I am in much more tighter control thanI have ever been andit is not easy but youlearn it fast and as a narutal problem solver (all diabetics are) it is a positive transitional period even thoughit may not feel like it some days, adjustments are always to be made.
Welcome to dLife, I'm glad you found us.
I wish you well
Robert
