[QUOTE="johnny37, post: 1756029, member: 24624"] hi lyndsayyale, I dont post much but your symptoms sound very much like mine. I was diagnosed T1 35 yrs ago and have been in the pump (Accucheck for 7 or 8 years). I dont think ive had da.y in thr last 35 tears when I havent hypo'd. At first it was pretty bad with several blackouts visits to A&E (I had no MDI training whatsoever). No blackouts on the pumps but I have to say control is no better then MDI. Daily highs and lows. Can be anything between 3 and 25. Seems odd to me that the pump is supposed to give you more security when in reality a daily regime of highs lows, bg tests and glucose and top ups seems an unscientific way of achieving it. my last HBA1c was 53 which appears to be acceptable to my team (apologies to Tom Jones). Whar was yours? Next one is about the same givcen the average bg tests i am getting (8.3) [/QUOTE]
