Hello everyone, I have now been pumping for 7 weeks. These past weeks have been a massive learning curve regarding how my body reacts to insulin! I have been adjusting basal rates (currently on 8 different settings!) but despite being incredibly positive and dedicated towards giving this 110% the last week has been REALLY HARD! and emotionally draining . I have resulted to using my insulin pen to reduce a succession of highs! having discovered a beautiful KINK on the end of my cannula, having decided to change as a last resort. It really feels like this last week has taken me right back, when I had been progressing so well I do feel more positive today but just wondered if any other pumpers have days like this? Would just be nice to know I am not the only one? Thanks
I'm right with you but it's been about 4 weeks for me. It definitely a challenge! You're not alone :p
