Thinking about getting a pump

Hi there,

I have been diagnosed 2 years ago with T1, and I find that I struggle more and more with my BG. It seems to be random at times and I wake up with 250 although I purposly overdosed Bolus... Then again I can't get much lower the whole morning...

So I guess that means Honeymoon is slowly coming to an end now. I talked to my Doc already that I'm not happy with my readings, but since my HbA1c is still at 6.5 he says I'm perfectly fine. Half a year ago I used to be between 5.9 and 5.7, so that is why I am not satisfied with the readings.

Anyway, I think I would like to have a pump finally. If things go on like this, I need a new medication plan anyway, and I feel a pump would make daily life a lot easier. But the thing is, I really have no idea about pumps... When there is still some insulin left in the tube, does it go to waste when changing it? Also I really like the idea of a wireless pump like the Omnipad, but does the Insulin also go to waste when replacing the pod? And I heard the remote is really uncomfortable, is that true?

Are there any pumps you can recommend looking into, and why? Unfortunately, the tslim is not available in Germany, so that is not an option for me.

Thank you guys for your help :)
