[QUOTE="manicdefender, post: 590048, member: 81159"] For me going on the pump was the best thing I have ever done. Don't get me wrong i've had a couple of moments where I thought about giving up and to be honest about a year ago a I went back to injections for a few weeks. However I gave it another ago with a more determined outlook and now the results are showing for themselves. HBA1c is now 6.5, down from 9.3. I never would have been able to do that with injections alone. My biggest problem I am very insulin resistant so I need a lot of it, using the pump is allowing me to fine tune the doses, whilst I work on other things to try and bring my insulin requirements down. Never had any issues with DKA or any real scarring either. My specialist was shocked when he saw my latest bloods :) Good luck with your decision and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask [/QUOTE]
