Smile Insulin Pump

thank you all for your information.

my diabetic control hasn't been good since i've had diabetes and i have had it for 7 years now!

i want to get my diabetes under control now as me and my partner are looking to start a family and i have been told the insulin pump will help me keep the diabetes under control and it will prevent too many problems during pregnancy.

Just another question, how do you insert the needle into your stomach, and where else can you put this or is the stomach the only place?

at the moment i am doing a 72 hour trace where i have a piece of plastic inserted to my stomach with a electrical device attached to it. Its a strange feeling having it on me, i keep worrying its going to fall out, although i have some clear plastic windows stuck over it. Does the tubbing or needle ever come out if you move or twist the wrong way?

Tanya
