Some gastroenteritis viruses look very much like beta cells to the immune system, so that you end up with Type 1 diabetes. That happened to the 4-year-old son of a friend of mine. Imagine explaining to a kid that age why Daddy has to stick needles in him after meals.That was 20 years ago, there might be a better way now.
Been on a pump for around 6 of those years and it is much better. Am thinking about self-funded Abbot Flash Glucose metering as I don't meet the NHS criteria for it.
for me it's a case ofpump = ability to control insulin around exercise more easilyFG monitoring = unobtrusive monitoring when exercising. Frustratingly though it's not legal for driving, where you need to do a fingerprick every 2 hours
