Myself I feel that mix Insulin is ****. I was on it at one time and had very poor control over my diabetes. I wish they would stop making that stuff as I don't think it works. Mixing Long and Fast acting insulin in the same shot just does not work anymore.

Your control does improve on 2 plus shots a day. Getting rid of that mix insulin was the best thing (pre pump) that I ever did.

I take mine off when I shower and get lucky with the wife. Those are the only 2 times my pump is off. My control has in-proved 110% over the last 7 1/2 months being on the pump. The pump has let me take back my diabetes and it no longer controls me, I control It.
