[QUOTE="ebony321, post: 229727, member: 17199"] Hi, Firstly i'm very jealous your jetting off to Oz, have a great time! It's lucky really your going from the pump to injections! as you wont have any insulin to interfere going back to MDI. Your plan sounds pretty good, that's definately how I would do it. Makes sense to start the dosage to match a suitable time in Oz. Remember as were shivering over here the ozzies are sunning it up, i assume you will be calculating your required lantus dose from your total daily dose of insulin on the pump, so if i were you i'd probably underestimate to compensate for the weather, then increase if required. Also running around the beach like a looney (thats what i'd be doing) is likely to reduce your insulin needs too. Have an awesome time! [/QUOTE]
