[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2193798, member: 503481"] Insulin pump therapy is fast approaching and I can’t say I’m not nervous. I see my therapist on this Thursday so that should help ease my thinking. I was also considering taking a week off from work to figure out the pump after all my appointments, does anyone think that is a good idea? My dsn said it could be something that I could consider because I’ll still be paid, just not as much. I honestly don’t want work pushing me along with a pump that is figuring me out. I don’t know whether hypos will reoccur more, so I don’t want my manager and guests looking at me while Dexcom is like “I HEAR YOU LIKE TO EAT MORE”. There have been times where guests are laughing with me about the alarms and 99% of the time they ignore it or they are cool with it. Am I too complicated thinking like this? There are a lot of possibilities that might or might not happen. But I’m armed with coke, tablets and a double script of insulin cartridges for my pens. [/QUOTE]
