Kawg, I hope you will visit us often with all of your comments & questions. You couldn't have found a better place to air your concerns . . . Richard is a wealth of wisdom and knowledge, especially for type 1s. He's barely older than I, and he's been diabetic for 64 years. There isn't much he hasn't seen in this milieu.
Thank you for joining us - please let us know how things are going. You have all my best wishes for finding a suitable instructor who can help you sort out the complications of pumping. I know it has the capability of making your BG so much more stable and your life much easier once you get the hang of it.
take care,
