I have the minimed 722...I have been diabetic for 17 years and I will be turning 30 next month. I am glad to hear an endorsement for the pump, I have not heard anything negative about them, so long as you had decent control and discipline to begin with.
Congrats, rguysailing! 40 years with diabetes is something I am looking forward to! So, I guess I can loose my its tough to "teach an old dog new tricks" excuse!
And yeah, Modo, I will definintly be careful...like rguysailing, muy temp basal is 50% of my regular dose and that should do the trick...It will take some time to fiddle with the proper methods and adjustments but well worth it, I'm sure!
Rguysailing, have you noticed a difference in sensing low reactions? I am concerned that the slow influx of insulin will cause potential problems...or am I too concerned?
