In July my consultant referred me for pump therapy. I'd always shunned pump therapy, believing I would hate having something attached to me 24/7. I've been type 1 for 38 years, since the age of 10, and post the teen years I've always good control. However, as time goes by I'm just struggling with control, I blame much of it on being peri menopausal. Anyway finally after an 8 month wait I believe the appointment (for the end of April) I've received through the post today with the diabetic nurse at the hospital is in fact the first step to trying pump therapy out. Sadly there's no information in the bog standard appointment letter other than it's with the 'diabetic nurse.' I'll contact my consultant's secretary to get confirmation. Eeeek, it's finally going to happen. I feel I've just babbled a little but I just thought I'd share it with you all. Can anyone tell me what to expect when I attend the appointment? Much appreciated x
