Terrific news Twitchy!!! Yayyyyy!!!! I'm sure those nerves will pass very quickly!🙂 I'll move this to the general messageboard so all can share. Do keep us up to date on how things go - there's a lot of interest in pumps on the forum at the moment.🙂
Twitchy thats brilliant news!
Which pump are you getting? My son is due to go on a pump (hopefully in the next few weeks) - so we can compare notes! We have chosen the medtronic with veo.🙂Bev
thats great news, we've had 3 members recently start on pumps so read their threads and I'm sure you will find some useful info and tips.
Good luck with it
Dont loose sleep over the cannula, like me you may find yourself plesantly surprised! I have been lucky so far and find I havent felt it go in at all.....🙂
That's great news. The canulas don't hurt, the injections hurt more and just think only one needle every 3 odd days. Fab stuff. What pump are you getting?
Great news, Twitchy, and it will give you renewed motivation I'm sure. There is *instant* reward and result with adjustments on the pump -- you'll see how well you can do so quickly.
