I love all your replies. When I did ask for a pump back in the 90's the answer was we do not do them. Well, they do now. They try to change my insulin all the time. I tried loads and had lots of problems and just say no now to whatever they suggest. Last consultation I had, they did not mention insulin, then wrote to my GP saying they wanted to change both of my insulins! I said no again and changed to porcine my self through to from bovine. I tried humulin back in the 90's, had 1-3 hypos a day, no contact with consultant, and did not have any contact numbers for diabetic nurses back then. I will try again for pump but at moment I am loving porcine insulin. Works way better for me than bovine and way better than any of the modern insulins I have tried
