[QUOTE="Emck, post: 2528240, member: 498565"] Hi [USER=543911]@Charlieann94[/USER] thank you so much for responding! I think I might be in the same boat as you - more like background retinopathy near the macula than maculopathy itself. The consultant didn’t seem concerned and approved me to start trying. I wanted to bring my sugars down further before trying (slowly to avoid further eye problems). My hba1c is around the mid 50s at the moment so I’m not too far off target. I think I’m going to get set up with my pump and have my eyes checked again in September before we start trying. I have bee diabetic for 24 years now, so I know that eye issues are kind of inevitable but the further complications that pregnancy brings do terrify me a bit! Do you use a Dexcom with your pump? I’m thinking of getting using one instead of my libre. [/QUOTE]
