Re: Would you prefer to be on insulin injections or on a pum I have always preferred to be on injections rather than pump, more flexibility with the injections. I suppose both have their pro's & con's but I am an "injecy" -- Sam Sent from the iOS App Facebook.com/sammskii999

Depends on how slow you get to your low BG. If you go fast you'll have a hypo noticeably. I had one on levemir that took me to 1.3 but I felt fine ! :) -- Sam Sent from the iOS App Facebook.com/sammskii999
