Just joined looking for info.
Hello all,
I have been A type 1 diabetic(juvenile onset) for 12 years now. The
only other person in my family that I know of that has had diabetes
is my grandmother. She was diagnosed the same year I was. She passed
away from complications in January of 1999. Well I’m now 24, and
still a brittle diabetic. I was on Regular and NPH for a while and my
body seemed to develop an insulin resistance to it. So I was switched
to Humalog and Lantus which is working fine now, but I’m still having
my bad days. So what I was asking is if anyone out there has had
anything bad happen with an insulin pump. The doctor has thought
about putting me on one, I would like it to free me up from 4
injections a day, but need to know if there are any bad side effects
or problems from using an insulin pump? Any response is helpful.
