[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2392326, member: 53162"] Hello [USER=542058]@SJT1D[/USER] Brilliant news - it’s quite an achievement to get this far. My transition was simple, I got approval and went in for training and started on saline for a week whilst still doing injections to get used to bolus calculations on the pump, then went onto insulin, started on conservative ratios which were gradually tweaked, despite being so keen to get a pump I still had my weak moments when levels were really off so perseverance and resilience are important, it took me a month to get things more balanced and now I do all my adjustments myself without any input, I am on the tandem slim with control IQ and G6 sensor, I get my weekly updates from my G6 app so can see where I need to adjust, has certainly been a great improvement in my control. I get all my consumables direct from the manufacturer when I need them, and that’s all there is to it, but process might be different for your hospital, your DSN should be able to explain the process.
