[QUOTE="nixiepixie, post: 383590, member: 70499"] oh yeah about the pump, i have never ever been spoken to about a pump despite being told constantly that my hba1c is too high. i feel like my diabetic care has really fallen off since i turned 18. i now get looked after by a diabetic nurse at my doctor's surgery and i know they mean well but i really find it hard to take condescending advice and criticism from someone who has been on a course about diabetes for a couple of days when i've been living with it for 20+ years! Stupidly, i thought that the pump monitored your BG and gave the insulin automatically. knowing that i would still have to calculate everything and give the correct dose...kinda seems like a waste of time as that's what i'm already doing. BUT sooooo many people keep saying what a huge difference it has made to them, so i don't know :crazy: [/QUOTE]
