I'm currently going through a very very long process of trying to get a pump from my hospital. Anyway I was sent to the dietician yesterday and asked her some questions about pumping. She said that the slow trickle of fast acting works in exactly the same way as a long acting would, and that the insulin before meals is administered in the same way as a pen is (as in all in one go) She did seem to be trying to put me off as she admitted she doesn't like them but I have been wondering since then as I've heard the majority of people say it's improved control, how does it improve control when it works the same way as daily injections?? Sorry if it's a really obvious question!
