[QUOTE="ann34+, post: 906860, member: 94348"] Yes, that is what it is - it may help certain categories of people, but not all. I am puzzled as to why you maybe thought it might be more than this? Maybe it is a bit over hyped by the pump companies, or some doctors??.... But with no 'closed loop' yet, the basic system is still much the same as one I trialled in 1980, but with more infusion rate choices and a lot of apps. It is particularly useful for children, and others, who may have low insulin needs and who are very insulin sensitive, and for people needing to alter their infusion rates a lot, though - and I found it just as useful in 1980, despite no proper infusion sets, and just a long angled butterfly needle, which was painful whenever i turned. But i still found it terrible coming off it back then. [/QUOTE]
