Hi I was wondering if anyone could give there honest thoughts on having a insulin pump. Did it make your levels more controllable and not have many highs or lows? And is it easy to use?
Definitely worth all the effort it needs to get the dosages correct. The specialist team will indicate one month to get there but it takes much longer. I'd say 4-6 months before I was comfortable with settings, a lot less hypos as can set temporary basal when more active. I'll be honest I despised it to begin with, I was ready for giving up but Support from the forum made me sit down & assess the improvements it has made for me. Worth sticking with. I have the omnipod dash.
Nice to hear you've gone from hating it to accepting it
The thing I hate the most is realising 3 days have past... so set change day
