[QUOTE="l0vaduck, post: 330747, member: 7164"] Hi, it sounds like you are both going through the mill. Do you think the problem could be trying to change too many things at once? I know when nothing seems to be right, it's very tempting to try adjusting more than one thing, but then that makes it impossible to see what has affected what. Has he tried different insulin in the pump? I use Apidra because of its rapid and short action compared with Humalog and Novorapid. I find that the shorter the action, the more predictably it behaves. This made long acting (pen based) insulins very difficult for me to manage and meant that the pump has been a vast improvement for me compared with injections. If he hasn't already read it, a good book about pumping might help - Pumping Insulin by John Walsh has been recommended to me many times. I hope you can both get some improvements so you can stop focusing on the diabetes. [/QUOTE]
