[QUOTE="shelley!, post: 1493588, member: 109009"] Hi, just joined the group. I too suffer with anxiety and panic attacks relating to fear of hypos. I was only diagnosed 4 yrs ago at age of 32, but I have two young daughters which adds to my worries of hypo. I started on the Medtronic 640g 18 months ago and CGM 6 months ago. Although on medication, I feel the combination of the two have been a life saviour. I am in much better control now so reduced fears and the pump stops insulin if levels reach a low limit I have preset. I still have maybe two hypos week but mainly from mis judgment of carb intake. It's incredible I highly recommend. Also having pump permanently fixed- well I am used to it now, just another part of me. Good luck in future, hope you go for it. [/QUOTE]
