Hi
My name is Heather. I am 48 years old and have had type 1 diabetes for 34 years. I have been using an insulin pump for the past 18 months and would be interested to know how other diabetics cope with using it. I have found that I can control my sugar levels with it and achieve better levels (overall) but that it takes up so much of my time to achieve the good results and to keep on top of recording the sugar levels on a spreadsheet and reporting back to base.
