[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1395532, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=355109]@Vaper[/USER] I'd agree a pump would help you manage better, however based on your current regime, a bolus/basal regime would also work very well too as it would give you greater control. Unfortunately whatever route you take hypos are inevitable, they go hand in hand with type 1 and insulin. If you go down the route of a pump then there is a period of adjustment with getting your ratios fine tuned and it does take a lot of work to get this right, yes your control can improve hugely, but I cannot comment on using a pump and shift work. Ideally a continuous glucose monitor would be a useful tool for you in your role as you could track patterns and see if you are going high/low, this would help give you information which could help stabilise your BG levels.
