[QUOTE="ann34+, post: 491417, member: 94348"] You don't say whether you have worked out why you went into dka? Whatever else, that and bad hypos are best avoided. Could it be that you maybe need ketone testers? On the pump it is easy to get ketones, especially if you are fairly insulin sensitive and especially if you - as many women do - have very changeable insulin needs over a month. Sometimes needs can be double end of month compared with middle. Over 30 years ago a doctor gave me good advice - he said just keep trying for good control, to avoid complications, as it would be less than 10 years to a cure. He meant that it would not be much fun getting a cure and having to cope with complications the rest of my life. There was not a cure but i just kept on! You have a very good chance of actually seeing a cure or at least a closed loop pump system as you are so young. It is all a pain, but what is the alternative?! All the best [/QUOTE]
