[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 276672, member: 12578"] Just a couple of things. It is important to have backup pens just in case something goes wrong as it would only be a matter of hours before the insulin runs out (cross fingers it's not happened) For me the benefit isn't to be able to eat snacks without injecting because I don't eat snacks but is to be able to reduce the basal for activities. The biggest drawback I think and that may be age related is that the marks from the sites don't go very quickly. (they may stay longer because of less elasticity in the skin) I think that might have concerned me when I was younger. [/QUOTE]
