One Month Pump Aniversary!
August 19, 2004
52 weeks ago, I was hooked up on my pump today.
It has been a very good experience. I've been posting about this in bits and pieces, so I'm going to try to tie some of the accomplishments together.
I've gone from around 100 units of insulin a day to 40 units.
I've gone from an A1c of 7 with lows, to an A1c of 6.2 without lows. I will not deny eating extra food to avoid lows, but I haven't had an emergency, treatable low since on the pump.
I've lost around 10% of my body weight.
But the best thing, is that I feel better. And everyone has noticed.
