I hope things improve for you on MDI @Spiker , thank goodness there are alternative methods to try in order to keep our sanity.
I can understand the freedom and relief, both physically and mentally from being pump free. Although my pump has been a life saver I do find the nagging worry about cannula failure and potential interrupted insulin delivery difficult to deal with sometimes. With MDI ,once injected,as long as the insulin isn't running down your skin then it's pretty much odds on that it's got into you and is on its way to do its thing. Set failure and site damage with a pump plus having to be a full time detective looking for issues can be quite a drain.
I wish you well with it.
