[IP] No pump/bg to low/Barbara
Barbara: That is the biggest reason the DR put me on the pump!!!!!!
I had hypoglycemic unawareness and woke to many nights with 30-40's.
Since being on the pump I have only done that maybe 2 times in the past 3
yrs. I can now tell whether my BG, morning or night, awake or asleep is
70-75. During the night I treat with a box of juice and wake up with a normal
BG.
The Physician,
in my opinion, needs to educate himself regarding this wonderful pump. While
it took me almost 3 yrs. to learn to love my pump, I would never go back to
injections. All the pumps mentioned on this web site are excellent. I
choose a Disetronic H-tron mainly because it came with a backup pump and at
that time was waterproof.
I hope you will find a doctor who will get in touch with the newer, updated
treatment for IDDM's. Remember, it is YOU that should be
making the decision, NOT you Physician.
The best to you...............Jackie P
