| | | Would you say that this last year has been easier than any year before without a pump? I've now gone 16 months with my pump and haven't passed out, had a seizure or required help to treat a low. I've been able to eat some rather unhealthy meals and bolus properly for them, so I don't crash low soon after eating and then go sky high later.
I wish I had asked about a pump years earlier.
