Acceptance of health treatment claims that are not adequately supported by evidence. I dislike it when people sell ineffective and even harmful alternative health products to exploit the desperation of people with chronic illness.

Working full time, fairground rides or anything which makes too much adrenaline!
Yay! Fab news! :) I'm sure if you get in touch with the clinic they'll be able to tell you which pumps they have available. My clinic told me at the very beginning which pumps they had available. :) Good luck. I've just started on my pump last Monday, it's a bit of work getting the levels set up but so far I'm loving it! :)

I think in Scotland you can only get the Medtronic Minimed 640g.
