Hey I've posted before but still feeling very nervous about this so please help! Any advice will help!
I'm getting pump on 25th with saline until 4th.
4-9th in on a weeks course for pump.
Unsure when il go 'live' with insulin? I have the week off my work to attend the course, (I work part time) unfortunately to get time off means I need to work the Saturday (8-6) and am then on rota for 4 days in a row as over (sun-wed). So my concern is what if I don't got 'live' until the Friday and have lots of hourly test to do for basal rates ect. Do you think it's going to be too much getting to grips with pump and working more than normal (some of which is lone working) I have young family too so it's not like I can sit back and relax when home. I want to give this my ALL and really focus on this as for me it's hoping to be life changing. I've waited since April to get my pump.
How did starting out go for every1 else? How much work was testing/tweeting things take?
Sorry for asking same question again I just want to give my work plenty of notice if can no longer work the extra shifts that week.
