Hi Jenny,
Welcome to the forum.🙂

What pump are you on? My son (12) has been on his pump for 1 year now and his hba1c has dropped from 9.6 to 7% and he loves it - wouldnt go back to injections for anything.🙂Bev

A warm welcome! 🙂

I've had diabetes for 18 years and have been pumping for just over 1. The pump's made an enormous difference to my control and quality of life.

Looking forward to more posts from you!
