If it would help to check this forum
www.diabetesforums.com it is diabetics talking about everything that has to do with diabetes. There's a thread talking about pumps. Sometimes talking to people that live with it everyday is better than a doctor because their the ones that have to actually cope with it everyday. I know where your coming from, my husband and son are diabetics but neither wanted to get a pump so I can't help with that. Sorry.
