8) One interesting, and very encouraging finding this past week: no hypoglycemic symptoms. My lowest BG was 77, and that isn't because I deliberately stayed excessively high. It was more because whenever I noticed that I was trending lower (e.g., in the low 80's), I could turn down the delivery of the basal insulin - something that simply can't be done with Lantus or other basal insulin products. This new ability to avoid lows is a large part of the reason that I was finally persuaded to start pumping, and it's an amazing difference from giving shots.
So, in brief, to answer Steph's question ("How do you like it?"), the simple answer is "Very much."
