So type 1 diagnosed a couple years ago. Doing amazing since. Turned life around... Etc etc... Ready to read a rant?
I hope so because!!!
RANT
So my doctor and family are pushing me to get a pump. Me? I would rather piss glass.
Now I know what you are thinking! Such incredible pain is surely not worth it right? Well yeah I have no doubt about that.
But here's my issues. Electronics mess up. Idc what 'success rate' any pump has on the market right now. If it's electronic, it will mess up eventually. And I love technology man! Always watching for the next biggest tech thing. But I am not immune to how tech seems to... Never age well. So something controlling a life and death issue like my insulin management... Just doesn't sit well in my gullet.
Call me a crazy fearful lunatic if you want. I like the control I have now. I don't worry all that much. And I don't have to worry snagging a pump or a tube on anything. Maybe I read one too many horror stories about these bleeding things. But you literally couldn't pay me to attach one of those things to my body.
And yes, I fully admit I may be a little crazy lol just a little bit...
