@isaac11o There often is a waiting period. I was diagnosed with type1 years after my son, and it took me a couple months of near-constant campaigning to go directly to a pump. Pumps are a lot more work -- lots more finger pokes, more stuff to lug around -- but they're a huge advance over inject...

  @TypeOneDiabeticc He uses a Medtronic Paradigm Revel pump model 523, with CGM integration. It's a heck of a machine :)

  @mrsfuzionzero I disagree with your statement whole heartedly. I am a type 1 diabetic who uses a pump. My last a1C was 5.1. What was yours? Are you even diabetic?

  Also, all the things that Howellbri said.

  @LittleLucysLife It'll be unsettling as your little one grows and the amount of carbs they get per meal increases...we see meals now that are over 100g of carbs in a sitting! Unbelievable, but with a pump, we can avoid most of the nasty highs. How are your daughter's overnight numbers? We fin...

  @dolphyn2 I was diagnosed with type 1 this year -- and I'm creeping on up 40. It's a hell of an adjustment to make, but the pump greatly eases that adjustment. Not only can I dose for food as I eat (meaning I don't have to plan out my meal precisely), but I can easily vary my basal rate, or ev...

  @thehorsefreak2010 : He was diagnosed at 10 months of age, in the spring of 2004. Nope, no chickenpox, those are just moles.

  @vulcantts It depends on your insurance, but the people at minimed (1-800-minimed) can help you get some of the paperwork done to facilitate it. I believe that the customer service departments of all the pump manufacturers will help you get their particular pump -- but I only know minimed's num...
