[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1668498"] I try to discretely punch in my numbers. I don't leave the dinner table or meeting room (unless I've been hiding my pump in my bra :)) to dial up my dose but nor do I "flop it out" (I'm not sure the tube is long enough). However, as I have found very few comfortable and convenient places to hide my pump, it is clipped to my waist band most of the time for people to see and comment (few do). But like injecting, there is a way to do it in a public which is not necessarily publicly: I just dial up my numbers as if it is perfectly normal thing to do (which it is for me) and carry on. I have found myself doing this whilst continuing a conversation and I don't believe I have offended anyone. [/QUOTE]
