Oh my God Emma it is just great!! I have had it two and a half weeks now. It is just so easy and painfree and I love the fact I can bolus when I'm walking down the street. It has reduced my insulin need by nearly a third , which is great. My control is much tighter and so easy to correct highs, or snack. It has a great feature which tells you how much insulin you currrently have in your system, it can store all my favourite foods and their carb ratios so if I fancy a gingernut, i tell the control I am having one and it will deliver the right amount of insulin based on carbs, insulin I have on board and BG.
It is so easy to wear, I have worn it in the bath, to a posh evening dinner and sleeping is no problem. I find on my upper arm is most comfortable.
I am sure you will be impressed at the demo night. It is the best thing I have ever done for myself and I will NEVER go back to all those injections and the inaccuracy that comes with them.
Good luck to you and your son - do tell me how it all goes x
