Hi All, Bede has had his pump for about two weeks now and so far so good! Even managed to drop his HbA1c by a whole point in a week!! He has a day trip coming up and I am wondering if I should send an insulin pen along with his spares for the day? They aren't doing anything physical (code breaking at Bletchley Park) but is it better to be safe than sorry?
Thanks A x
 
Hi A, send a complete set change just in case plus an insulin pen. Hope he has a good trip and well done on lowering the A1c 🙂
