Hello!
I'm Mary and after 20 years as a type 1 diabetic I have recently graduated to pump therapy using an Animas 2020 pump. This is the start of the seventh week and I becoming more confident in using the pump features - varying the basal rate to stamp on rising BG's or lift them back up as necessary. After some difficulties with Inset II infusion sets I am now using the Inset 30's; much better. You can actually see that the cannula is located under your skin and not wrapped over it as happened on one occasion with the 90 degree variety; then the first you know about it is when your BG rises above expected levels and you have to start all over with a new set. I'm open to questions on my choice of pump and accessories. Mary
