Hi all. I first got the insight when it came out in 2015. I didn't get on with the infusion sets and changed back to my Medtronic for a long time til now. For various reasons including using an out of warranty pump I've been asked to give it another go. Anyway... Infusion sets are still not...

Oh no it won't let me post my picture!! #catlady was to describe my pouch [emoji23]

Thanks grant. I'm still getting my head around the fact the rules suggest such high fat. Must say I completely fell off the wagon today due to work stress. I think it's going to be much harder when I get really busy at work. I'm determined to give it a go though. Thanks again :) Sent from my...

Hi all. After being a bit nosey on this part of the forum and investigating LCHF I decided to give it a go. Start Monday and all that. Well I did. I had a few naughty things, it was my first day after all, but I stuck to about 40g of carbs all day, compared to the massive amount i would usually...

I tried this! It was my first thought. I used to be on the Medtronic paradigm and had very few issues. In comparison anyway. Because my pump is funded by the hospital, they won't be able to replace it unless they reapply to the 'pump panel' for more funding. Which they are reluctant to do but...

I've just got in from the lousiest day and thought, 'oh I'll just check back on my post, I doubt anyone will have seen it...' I'm just blown away by all your support. Thank you for your positive comments and I really appreciate my virtual hugs! Thank you for tagging some helpful people. It's...

Hi all, new to the forum. I've never really looked to social media for support but I'm really struggling. It will be 16 years this year since my diagnosis. I'm getting to a point that my diabetes is just getting in the way of my life. I don't have time for my diabetes at work and when I do pay...
