Welcome Mike
You're getting old. Your adrenal gland doesn't work like it used to. I'm betting you are mid-30's¿ Wanna buy the t-shirt?
I wanted to avoid the pump too. I actually wanted to avoid it a lot. How wrong I was! Trust me dude, it's by far the best thing you can do for yourself. I could go on for days, but I won't. I'll save everyone another rant.

I now feel totally armed with a ton of knowledge.
There are many things you can and probably should do to help your current cundition. Dumping the NPH and switching to something like Lantus or Levemir is probably one of them, but it's not that simple. Coming to these forums is the biggest decision! It saved my life! (9 911's)
