[QUOTE="Bon83, post: 1541159, member: 397387"] Well done be really proud of yourself! !! I can't be much help apart from saying it probably comes down to weighing up the pros and cons. If you have trained for a while with the pump it may be offering you more flexibility for bg management on the day and for me nerves push my bg up - but I can't correct for this too much with injections as adrenaline will run out as I settle down. However if the belt interferes with the pump then this is also a source of stress and anxiety - has it been an issue in training? I was always told don't change your training plans last minute for the day stick with the plan but diabetes isn't quite as compliant as just deciding what sports gel flavour suits you [emoji23]. I haven't used a pump can you alter the site or protect it from the belt. Sorry not to be more help! Best of luck to you!! [/QUOTE]
