Message: <blockquote data-quote="Scoop4" data-source="post: 284911" data-attributes="member: 44904">Re: Would you prefer to be on insulin injections or on a pumI am on a pump and have been for the last 5 years and I couldn't go back to injections. My HB1C was between 6 and 6.5 but I suffered with terrible hypos and needed to take such small amounts of insulin that's why I was put on it. I was nervious with the thought of having something attached to me all the time but it's just like when I was first diagnosed I couldn't imagine injecting 4 times a day, you get used to what you have to do to control your condition and a pump is easier.  I have been put on a continuous glucose monitor attached to my pump I can see how good the artificial pancreas is going to be. The pump really is the future as it I only one needle every 3 days less bruising and no one complaining about you injecting in public.</blockquote>
