We have been given a pump on trial. My daughter has just turned 5, (was diagnosed novenber 2010) was doing ok on the 4 injections aday but levels were sometimes all over the place. Given the option of having the pump on trial, so took it.
Finding it alot of work but her levels are more stable. My daughter likes not having injections but hates having the canula out and replaced, I know this will proberly come with time. Need to let the Diabtic nurse soon if we want to go for funding or back on the injections. Would love some advice since feel torn. Its learing a whole new way of doing things and putting Leah through pain with the cannula or will it be worth it in the long run. Once the canula is in after 2 minutes forgot about it sugar free tip top pain gone.
Please let me know your experiences and any advice. I would be so grateful. Thank you. :shock:
