[QUOTE="LittleSue, post: 203455, member: 6295"] Thanks ebony They originally said I could go straight to pumping insulin if I wanted. Partly I'd like the security of a dummy run - last time I changed insulin, I needed only half the dose they estimated, which makes me cautious. This way I'll get used to basic tasks like boluses without my brain getting fuddled by high/low sugar. Hopefully having their loan pump and being in frequent contact will encourage them to sort out my own pump promptly. I've been trying to explain the advantages to colleagues, one of which will be tiny dose adjustments. I know 0.25 is a quarter of a unit, but what is 0.[u]0[/u]25? I've seen it expressed as 25 one-thousands, but is that one 250th of a unit or is it one 40th? [/QUOTE]
