How true what you wrote is... I am going on year 9 with my pump, and I am just now learning about basal testing and timings of when to bolus... Any most of this is because I ask questions to my endo that I have gained interest through reading here and other places online...

It is very much a "teach yourself" or "trial and error" approach to management, as long as you have the ability and gumption to go at it yourself...

So, to answer the initial question, I would have changed the detail of my pump therapy, learning how to do it, and not what to do...
