[QUOTE="Endoftheline, post: 354636, member: 61568"] Hi Geoff, I am on a pump but they expect you to be very motivated prior to getting one . The testing regime is the same before meals and then 2 hours after and you have to be rigid with carb control. Also you would need to be comfortable with computers as the pump has to be programmed to suit your body. If you can prove to your doctor that you are motivated enough to visit the clinic regularly and control your diabetes they may reconsider. I had to do this before getting one and they arebquitenstrict if I do not keep my levels down but it does mean I only have to put the device in my stomach approx 3 times per week but do have to fiddle about with the pump including sleeping with it.
