[QUOTE="llynettejb, post: 366557, member: 42610"] Hi Clair, I know exactly where you are coming from I have had Diabetes for over 35 years and have struggled with many, many problems associated with Diabetes Type one. I was a single mom( after my husband walked when he discovered you have to give as well as take in a relationship) it was so hard seeing my 17 month old son using my lifeline system to get me help, waking from a hypo to see those worried little eyes looking down at me and then light up when I spoke to him. I continued to struggle until 3 Years ago I went on a course to learn how to really Carb count it was fantastic and helped a lot however the biggest thing to come out of it was I learned about Pumps. My Diabetic Specialist Nurse then put me forward for one and in December 2011 A parcel arrived and in it was a small Pink device, my chosen colour, and that is when I met my new Best Friend an Animas 20 20 Insulin Pump complete with Pink accessories I went to pump clinic in January and was shown how to prepare, use and set up my pump. At first it was just saline that was in it then a week later I went live. :D How was it, FANTASTIC I now feel completely in control of my Diabetes for the very first time. Its seems to me that you are having the kind of problems that I had I know a pump is not for everyone but I definitely think its worth a try after all what have you got to loose. You can private email me if you would like to ask me anything about the pump etc, [email=llynettejb@yahoo.co.uk]llynettejb@yahoo.co.uk[/email]. Regards Lynette [/QUOTE]
