Thanks a bunch! ill give what you said ago! ive tried pretty much everything else! i never really feel the insluin pump when i sleep anyway, even when i do lay on it by accident sometimes!

do keep on at them! i dont know whether I had the young adult card playing with me but whatever it was worked! I was asking every time i went to the clinic and i just got laughed at (same as you) and said that there was nothing that they could do because it would be seen as cosmetic. Luckily I...

I always wear PJ bottoms too, and place the wiring through the side of my underwear so it is compltelty out of the way. Ive asked my partner on many occasions if ive purposely pulled it out during the night and he has said no, i just turned around an awful lot during my sleep which much have...

hey fellow pumpers! i think that ive hit pump blues. Im fed up of it - big style! I cant believe the amount of times ive had trips to the ANE department of the hospital due to DKA due to insulin pump failures! ive been more times in the past 9 months when using the insulin pump than i ever did...

for anyone that has read my posts before, some people may know that i am one of the unfortunate people to suffer from severe insulin lypohypotrophy around the stomach area. i have a rare form of it so when i say it looks disgusting and im ashamed to get intimate with my boyfriend because of it...

does anyone have the same problem that i am having at the moment. Im inserting the canula and pressing down on the sticky patch to keep it secure. A few hours pass or in some cases in the space of an hour it has ripped out of my stomach! i sort it out and then the same things happens again...

So ive had IP since november now. My HBA1C back then was 11.4 < which is why i ended up using the pump in the first place. I just had the my first HBA1C since using the pump and its gone UP to 12.7!!!!! Why!?! my blood sugars are so much better so i dont understand at all!

ive started tucking it down the front of my top. seems to be okay there but is still really uncomfortable. since writing this ive pulled it out again. now im more concerned that i might be ripping it out during my sleep? im a bad sleeper, i punch and kick out a lot. Lol. im hoping not.

I dont know how i did it, and how i didnt wake up but the other night i went to sleep, connected up all fine, and woke up with my insulin pump on the bed, without it connected up! It cant have hurt me as i didnt wake and i had no idea how long i had been without insulin for. Blood sugar was HI...
