enquired about 'the pump' told i have to do a 4 day carb counting course, they've booked me on it! 4 days ? I don't know a great deal about counting the buggers, just use common sense, dont eat a lot of them! so is it really worth 4 days ?

cheers all
 
Apparently yes. I am booked for 5 days and can make better use of my time but I have only heard good things from those who have attended. Ultimately, it's your body. Do you want better control ?

Hi Ewan,
I read your post but i don't know about the pump.
But i have been diabetic 38yrs this tear and my diabetic nurse suggested buying the Carbs and Cals book to help me control my sugar levels and the a mount of insulin i took.
Whether this would help you before you try the pump I'm not sure.
What has made them talk about the pump.
I have 4 injections a day and 1000mg twice a day Metformin.
Hope all goes well with what ever you decide.
Take care
Tracey
 
thanks all, since i think carbs etc and exercise are common sense just puzzled why so long, but you can never know to much
