Hey @badbrogs21

Congratulations, that's great news; I'm happy for you.

Which pump have you obtained and how are you finding things?

I so hope you realise the management that a pump takes otherwise you are seriously not going to cope.
You can't just "forget"/"fall asleep" etc.

You are going to have to be a lot more conscientious. You only have max 5 hours of insulin in your body at anytime with a pump as it is only quick acting insulin.

You need to be prepared for a lot of adjusting if you can't be ***** now...

Oh dear; jumping on his case when he hadn't even started on his pump - shame on you @donnelleysdogs

It's a rare breed indeed who has never forgotten to inject or bolus - I did so only the other week.
