[QUOTE="rowleyd3, post: 959697, member: 212517"] Hi all, I'm the parent of an 11yo boy, who is about to go on a pump. He was diagnosed in Jan this year, so the last 9months have been a big learning curve for us. He's very sporty, so we have those added complications, along with being diagnosed Coeliac (yesterday). I've read loads of stuff, but wondered if there are any gotchas that I should be aware of? Anything you as a user or a parent can call out? I'll no doubt have a 100 questions over the next few weeks, as he's being shown his pump next week, a saline start from 2 Nov, then starting at the end of Nov! We're 90% sure he is having a 640g if that helps ... Thanks, Darren [/QUOTE]
