[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1801954, member: 30007"] One of the biggest issues in relation to insulin pumps and other diabetes technologies in Europe (and the UK in general) is the lack of prevalence of them. When you consider that in the UK, around 10% of T1s have an insulin pump, whereas in the US, it's around 40% of T1s. As a result it's much more likely they have been encountered at security in countries where they are more common. That has quite a large part to play in familiarity. And if you think a pump is fun, try a small blue box of electronics that doesn't have any branding and you tell them is your artificial pancreas! [/QUOTE]
