[QUOTE="myarnton1, post: 1012949, member: 213685"] So I'm planning a spa day for my birthday which is on Boxing Day. I have a couple of questions about the pump and diabetes in general with regards to spa days. Firstly, I don't quite know what to do with the pump as many of the activities in the spa such as massage, swimming, steam room etc require me to take the pump off:shifty:. However if I disconnect the pump so much maybe I won't be getting enough basal to stabilise my b/s? Also, I have heard off a friend that diabetics need doctors advice prior to getting a massage for a reason which I have forgot. Oopso_O Is this true? Any advice is much appreciated and sorry for the long post:oops: [/QUOTE]
