From Insulin to a pump

Hi

Just an update. Today I went to King's for my appointment as they are looking at my possible allergy to insulin, and I
saw the diabetic specialist. They were able to say that my HBA1C went from 90 to 73 and that the insulin is working. They suggested I try a pump.
Initially, I panicked as I had seen years ago and it was bulky, however, when I saw the modern ones I am much happier with that option.

The only thing I wonder is that being a teacher and working with 4 yr olds, how would it impact me? I am concerned as this will be new territory for me.
They did also say that I will spend half a day in the hospital to see which insulin would suit me best, this should be within the next few weeks.

If anyone is on a pump and has some useful info, I would appreciate it!

Thank you.

Thank you to you both. I think I am just nervous. I just hope it works, I've tried 4 different types of insulin and 2 different tablets and nothing is working too well. I have these reactions to the insulin which is painful. I am hopeful, just hope this works.

Ruth, is there a pump you would recommend?

Thanks again.
