[QUOTE="Snapsy, post: 1125608, member: 265172"] [I]Fear[/I] of hypos = a detrimental effect on quality of life. What you say in your signature [USER=20775]@AndyS[/USER] might well support the above as a good reason to have a pump. As your HbA1c is 5.7 then [I]fear[/I] of hypos is certainly something your team should consider as being a jolly good reason for pump therapy, in my opinion. Mine was 44 (in new money) before I got my pump. Absolutely spot-on - but my issue was that 'normal' life had gone for a burton in favour of achieving that level of control. My team were brilliant in their interpretation of the guidelines once they realised how much my diabetes management was taking over my life. It's not a magic bullet but oh boy I'm so grateful for my pump! :) [/QUOTE]
