Most patients had better metabolic control with the pump, they also felt better, appreciating the greater flexibility of diet and insulin delivery rates. Many patients reported that carrying a device that was noted by others made them more aware of being a diabetic. Moreover, relying on a mechanical device for the delivery of a life-supporting drug caused uneasiness. Some patients |
