[QUOTE="eventhorizon, post: 2658596, member: 357039"] Hmm it does seem unfair. However before I was offered a pump I wasn't pregnant, had no undue problems with hypos, had a reasonable hba1c and was generally getting on with life. The main reason I got a pump, to achieve the above I was taking 8 to 12 shots of insulin a day. Are there any different angles you could approach your team from? Lots of testing, DP, anxiety, lots of shots, stopping or interfering with daily life, your job, a disability.....??? There are many different valid reasons why one therapy may work better than another. Make sure you put your reasons in writing and then question everybody why your circumstances don't warrant your choices. [/QUOTE]
