Hi @Catallen2712 I've had my pump for nearly 2 years after being on injections for 24 years, I absolutely love it. As @noblehead said, the pro's far outweigh the cons! What are your fears? For the things you have mentioned above, my pump just rolls around with me when in bed, I lay it by my...

Thanks @vicjord xx @MH2010 my doctor said there was no medication I could take but I may phone and ask about that injection, I'm still suffering, not quite as much as last week, I'm finding if I get up and carry on with my normal day as best as I can it eases through the day, eating better...

Stuart try having a look on the low carb section of the forum, being type 2 that is definitely your first aim I would say, lowering your carb intake will help you a lot. Also do what Clive said, ask for a print out of your results it will break everything down for you, you still won't...

Hi Stuart, I'm sure your head my be whirling from the info you have (or possibly haven't) received today so I won't bombard you with info, take a look around the forum and do a bit of research, I'll tag @daisy1 who will give you the info you need to know right now and to get you on the right...

Hi @Maxy personally I use the sure-T sets, which the cannula is filled before I insert it, I'm trying to think when I first got my pump what I used to fill the mio sets to buy afraid I can't remember sorry, I'm sure someone else will though. I use the sure-T as I had problems with the plastic...

Congrats to you too hun xx

Love your post @Tfqleeds, I love a positive attitude, I understand others saying maybe you are in your honeymoon period, maybe not, but even if you are, with that kind of positive attitude I think you will be able to handle changes as they come at you whether that be slightly changing your...

Thanks Hun xx

Hi Kev, hope they speed up the process for you a bit! it amazes me how different hospitals do the whole pump process differently, for me it was just mentioning it at my clinic appt, week later getting a 2 week trial one, by the time my trial finished my own one had been delivered & I was good...

Pretty low most of the time, was up twice last night with a 2.8 and a 3.1, constantly adjusting the basal on my pump but only doing it a bit at a time as I don't want to go in the opposite direction lol xx

Oh you're 2 weeks ahead of me :) I got some ginger chews in a pharmacy but they made me gag and nearly throw up in the car so they went straight in the bin. Me mam suggested ginger tea but I don't think I could drink that without gagging either! Xx Yeah smells are no good for me at the minute...

Thanks guys I've got a couple of days off work so going to concentrate on making my self eat a little every hour or 2, I've tried phoning doctors this morning but not been able to get through yet so hopefully I get something to help when I do. I'm only managing savoury foods, nothing about...

I'm so fed up, I'm trying my best but I feel nauseous from the second I open my eyes, haven't actually been sick but the feeling is strongly there all the time. No food is appealing to me at all, I'm forcing myself to eat but it's tiny portions and not often I'm 6 +4, had an early scan today...

Bad, cereal is full of sugar

Hi @Emmotha sorry to hear that, I think you have took a step in the right direction by admitting how you are feeling & what you have been doing I would suggest just taking 1 day at a time and set yourself little goals, whatever you will find manageable, maybe eating less rubbish...

Congratulations becky! Sounds like you are both doing really well! x

I got results from my retino appt yesterday that i wasn't expecting and I googled and wished I hadnt. we all do it, we are impatient and want answers NOW lol

Nice sauce chef :D

Hey Davy, sorry to hear that! I would imagine you will have to inform dvla but I could be wrong as I have no experience of it, I'm sure someone else will be able to shed a bit more light for you Abbie

I hate fireworks!
