[QUOTE="petsnponies, post: 520491, member: 67227"] It seems that there are many reasons for being put on a pump. I wasnt feeling too optimisic about getting one as my a1c is 7 and the NICE guidelines suggest a higher one to be considered for a pump. But for me to get that 7% it is ruling my life, I have to try really hard just to achieve a mediocre a1c and I want to do better. I also like the idea of reducing the rate when exercising. At the moment I have to eat before swimming, which sort of defies the point. I feel like weight loss would be easier on the pump too. Has anyone else lost weight once pumping? [/QUOTE]
