[QUOTE="Bebo321, post: 590779, member: 68730"] It's a good idea to get to grips with injections before you get the pump, but once you do move on I suspect that you will love it - especially because of the control it gives you when you exercise. For a prolonged period of exercise you can reduce the basal right down, so it can really help manage those nasty drops in BG. Honeymoon is not necessarily a bad thing - better to preserve as much function as you can. I saw some other clever ****** post a comment on the forum about managing BGs - 'Use insulin for the heavy work, and leave the pancreas to do the fine tuning'. I think they hit the nail on the head.;) Keep up the great work Adamski, you really are doing exceptionally well considering you're so new to all this. Any issues or questions and you can always get in touch with TeamBG through the website. Always happy to help.:) [/QUOTE]
