[QUOTE="leahkian, post: 1770356, member: 32193"] Hi i know its hard to get perfect control of BS when you first get the pump and once you do get it right you do take your eye of it. The thing is no matter way you get your insulin we all at some point take a break, you could have a change in lifestyle or could find that your mood is low and it effects how you test. Going back injections may give you better control and it is already making you test more at the minute you need to keep a record of your BS levels to see if there is a pattern. I did not check as much when i was on the pump unless there was something not right and after a while you will see what needs changing and they may transfer you back on to a pump later. Have you asked why they have changed you back to injections? You need to keep in contact with the team and then they can give you advice as some doctors can be blunt and will not let you put your side over. You and your doctor need to come up with a plan for the future with you having input as well it is no good the doctor telling you what he says is what you have to do, as when you go home it is you who has to look after it.
