Hi,
I have had type 1 for over 40 years and for the majority of it used a pen. A little over a year ago I started having massive problems with high blood sugar levels. Several people have told me to go onto a pump as it is easier to control blood sugar levels. Looking through the forum it seems there are a lot of fors and againsts.
Just putting that out as a general question, what do people think is best, Pump or Pen?
It also seems like I have to be an alchemist to create one as they are so difficult to obtain on the NHS!
Cheers
Col
