Perhaps we were separated at birth......
Except for the pump bit, I am just the same.... It looks like you are about the same level on the c-pep scale as I am(or was)
I use 2 u per meal (novorapid) and eat 16-20 carb that seems to work out very well, often have to eat a bit extra on long hikes, but day to day a ratio of 1/10 works well for me..fbg is usually mid 4's since insulin was 5.8 or more before. If I take more insulin and eat more carbs, it is fine for my 2 hr pp but I can guarantee I will be low at 3 hrs..I do that sometimes anyway, but after the 2 yrs without insulin (and 30g or less carb per day)I am pretty happy with 20g carb per meal now. Do you have to turn your pump on and off a lot? I would love the slow delivery of a pump, but I am self employed so the cost would be prohibitive... my last A1c was 4.9 so I feel pretty safe for now anyway..last time I did a test before insulin I had 25 g carb as whole grain cereal (3/4 cup) and was 13.7 at 75 mins..ouch.
