- I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 8. In school, I would carry my pen insulin and prick myself multiple times a day to check and treat my low sugar levels. Even my parents would visit me at school to see if I am okay or not. Now, with the automated insulin pump, my life is much easier as the pump takes care of my sugar levels. I am able to do all extracurricular activities and eat my chocolates without worrying.

About the therapy:
Automated insulin pump is a device that automatically adjusts delivery of basal insulin & gives autocorrection boluses based on sensor glucose readings. This means that the pump gets glucose readings from the Sensor and transmitter automatically, and then delivers of a variable rate of insulin, 24 hours a day based on your personal needs. This integrated system - meaning having a pump and a CGM that speak to one another - can help to stabilize your glucose levels and reduce both highs and lows.
