[QUOTE="LauraR88, post: 1437820, member: 349574"] Sorry for the late reply to everyone, I went off in a little huff with myself as I felt like I had failed. After all these years and many days of tears from having to do MDI I couldn't wait to get my pump and not even having it on for 12 hours I was ready for putting it in the bin. I don't suppose having so many hypos helped with my emotions! But I suppose I was also scared as I live on my own and I was petrified incase I had a bad hypo in my sleep and never recovered from it (I know I'm a drama queen!!) I understand it's not the pumps fault, but the insulin, however I refer to it as a whole!! My DSN it's great I have a fantastic relationship with her, she speaks with me most days and even helps me with non diabetic related things to. (They are worth their weight in gold when you find a good one) I have adjusted my rates after discussion with my DSN and had a much better few days so here's hoping it lasts! I knew it was going to be hard work, however, I never banked on it being so emotionally draining to :( [/QUOTE]
