[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 1360089, member: 11028"] Pumps are a fantastic piece of kit for managing type 1, I've been on one for 2 years next month and wouldn't want to go back to injections, but getting the best out of a pump means you have to test regularly so getting back into the habit of bg testing is a must [USER=287944]@jemz24[/USER] . Also a prerequisite for moving to a pump is the ability to carb count correctly, some pump clinics insist that the patient has completed a carb counting course such as DAFNE where as others are less strict on this. As for dancing, I'm sure a pump shouldn't get in the way too much, I use a tubeless pump called the Omnipod and this may be ideal if your concerned about tubing. [/QUOTE]
