[QUOTE="AlexandraMarnie89, post: 1312807, member: 83596"] Some people may be aware that I've had a really bad experience with my pump over the last couple of weeks. I ended up with really bad cellulitis from one of my sites, got DKA and had to have surgery to remove the infection from my leg over the weekend as a result I really don't feel comfortable using my pump at the moment and want to go back to pens. Unfortunately my DSN is currently off so I'm unable to speak to them about switching back for a few weeks. I was wondering if anyone has done this and managed to have good control doing it? I can't remember if for my basal rate when I went onto the pump I went up by 25% or down by 25% from the amour of Lantus I was taking [/QUOTE]
