| I absolutely love being on a pump, hard to remember what life was like before.
I upgraded from a Disetronic to a Cozmore a few weeks ago. So many new features!
What I like so far:
1. it has a blood glucose moniter attached to the back and it communicates with the pump. Once the pump is programmed for all your personal settings you can do a blood test and if you are high the pump knows exactly how much insulin you need.
2. You can program the duration of a bolus shot, I found that my sites last about a day longer than when the insulin is delivered quickly.
3. It knows how much insulin is left from your last shot and how long it will take to be used. This has been a great help as I am not trying to correct for what I think is a high 1 hour after a meal. The only lows I have had were my own fault .
I could go on.....
