[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1806795, member: 30007"] [USER=450277]@Adamuk1001[/USER] - stuff the consultant - often consultants know nothing, and in this case that's very true. Of course you can load a pump from a pen. Many people use pens to fill pump reservoirs - it's a standard practice! The easiest way is to stick the reservoir adapter on the pump reservoir with the reservoir piston fully plunger, then simply use the pen plunger to push the insulin in. That's never been a problem for me - I used the technique when I wasn't on an NHS pump. If that doesn't work, you can just stick a pen needle on the pen and inject into the reservoir. Lilly will be stopping making vials available due to the lack of use in vials, making it commercially non-viable. [/QUOTE]
