What is 'time in range'?
It is a measurement of CGM sensor data highlighting how much time glucose levels are within a specific glucose range for a 24 hours period:
· 3.9 – 10.0mmol/L (70 – 180 mg/dL) for adults.
· 3.5 – 7.8mmol/L (63 – 140 mg/dL) during pregnancy🤰

Do you remember the date when you or your family member were diagnosed with #diabetes?
Or as I call it 'D-day'.

Mine was 4008 days ago on 12th February 2012 🗓️
My blood glucose level was 30.6mmol/L🩸
I had my glucose measured in accident and emergency🏥
But the events that led to that moment was not smooth.

It's almost 200 days since I started using an insulin pump🗓️
So I thought I would reflect by creating a🧵covering:
What is pump therapy?
Why I switched from MDI?
What pump I chose and why?
How I switched?
What difference has it made?

What is pump therapy?
Insulin pump therapy is also known as a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII).
It's basically a programmed pump that delivers rapid acting insulin through an infusion set to help manage glucose levels.

What type of insulin pumps are there?
There are two main types:
One type are tethered e.g. @TandemDiabetes T Slim, @MDT_Diabetes 780G, @mylife YpsoPump.
These pumps consist of a portable pump device, a canula that is inserted into the skin, and small tubing.
