I'll start by saying I'm a natural worrier so I may be making a big deal out of this!
I've been diagnosed 10 years now. On Fiasp and Levimer mdi. My issue is dawn phenomenon and after trying everything was told the pump was only way to try and manage it.
I just received the phone call this morning that after 5 years on the waiting list (northern Ireland) they can finally offer me a pump. The nurse thinks I'll be all set and ready to go by Aug.
I am delighted! But my problem is...in Sept we are moving house, beginning our assessment process for adoption and going abroad for a wedding to Italy. I'm worried I'll have too much on to get the hang of it. My bgs are all over the place when I'm stressed.
Out of all those things my main worry is travelling with the pump, airport security etc. And how to dress as a wedding guest with a pump? My nurse thinks I'm worrying too much and that itll be grand and I do want to get started asap obviously for the adoption medical.
So I just need a little reassurance....is it doable?
