Default Off the pump - back to needles!

Yeah, I'm surprised too!

I had been on a minimed pump since 2009, but I had taken it off in June for Bonnaroo this year. Funny thing is, I actually got the pump the first time right BEFORE Bonnaroo : ) I just didn't want to have to explain to everyone "what is that!" every 2 mins lol. Also, in that environment it is pretty hard to keep clean, and with shows gettin pretty crazy (Especially my crazy dance moves) it gets pulled and tugged on just too much.

Anywho, I'm back on the needles and novalog/lantus and I'm actually loving the wire free life again! I still have the pump, just don't wear it. I may go back to it some day, but for now I'm getting the hang of controlling my sugar with injections.

However, we just inherited a box or two of my mom's friends needles, but they are the 1/2 inch. ones and that is just scary!
