Default Want to pump, but doctor doesn't think it's a good idea

I have been a type 1 diabetic for almost ten years now. I so desperately would like to be on the pump, but my doctor that I have been going to for the past year doesn't think the same. He keeps trying to change my insulin and get my numbers under control, but now my numbers are worse than before. I have never had good control since being diagnosed and I just think this might work out better for me. I have been diagnosed with neuropathy in both feet about 7 years ago and I worry about what else will happen if I don't get it under better control soon. My doctor keeps telling me that going on a pump sometimes makes it worse not better. I told him that I am tired of giving myself 4 shots a day. I have two kids and lead a very hectic life, many people that I have talked to who have the pump think that it would really help me. What does everyone think?
