Hiya Everyone
I’ve just joined this group and i thought i should say hello and
introduce myself.
I’m Samantha and i’m 28 from the UK. I have had type 1 diabetes now
for roughly 27 years. I was diagnosed when i was 14 months old. I’m
currently on 4 injections a day, Novorapid during the day and Lantus
(Glargine)before i go to bed. I’m also on a 2 week trial on the pump,
i only have saline solution pumping into me at the moment but i
change to insulin on the 11th November. So far the trial is going
very well and i can already see the benfits of being on a pump. The
model i’m using is the MiniMed Paradigm. My diabetes control is
pretty good but of course there is always room for inprovement,
hopefully that will come when i start using mypump with insulin.
I joined this group because i wanted to chat with people in the same
situation as myself. Anyway i’ll leave it there for now, don’t want
to bore you all to death
Look forward to posting here more.
Samantha.
