[QUOTE="Maco, post: 2350247, member: 465882"] Hi Dan, Yeah it was really hard to be honest, never really accepted it until my early 20’s but even still it was never under good control. I used to & sort of still do go through phases off testing loads and been really on top of things then the next minute no testing at all and completely guessing what my bloods are from how I feel. I’d say this last year has been one of my best & hopefully it’ll continue with the pump. I was on a pump a year after being first diagnosed but because of how poor my control was & not staying in contact with the hospital it ended up getting chucked in the draw and not used. I still actually have my old paradigm veo laid around somewhere. From what I’ve seen the infusion sets etc are still inserted the same so it should be simple enough to get the hang of things. I’ve managed to get funding for the new Medtronic 780G as well as the guardian CGM, been active and been out the house quite a lot I’m hoping the automatic shut off when going low and automatically insulin adjustment when high will give good results. Which pump are you using? [/QUOTE]
