I've had a <7 A1C for the past two years, and I got a pump in August. I love the pump. I was always someone who checked his/her BGL three times per day at the very least. Now, I don't even feel weird about not checking it period. It's not that I'm embarrassed or anything, because everyone sees me giving boluses and what not with my pump, and they usually have questions. Has this happened to anyone else? How did you get back in the habit of testing regularly? |
Get a dexcom continuous glucose monitor (or wait for the Abbott Navigator, which is supposed to be out by year end). You just wear it like a pump and it tells you whats going on. I have had mine for a bit over a month, and it is awesome. Good luck. You will seriously regret ignoring your bgs if you do it for long!
