Is an insulin pump just another insulin delivery device?

[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2079950, member: 365308"] Had both pump and MDI and agree that there is no magic bullet however since there are certain technical advantages to only having a drip of insulin going in every hour i.e. less severe hypos and dosing errors. I am more interested in the myth that all type 1s can achieve normal blood sugars merely by matching insulin to carbs....Maybe some of us get good HBA1cs but we still have highs and lows outside of normal range. Therefore I think the delivery mechanism is not so important as getting affordable closed loop systems. [/QUOTE]
