An excellent Source of information by Shuli (Hadera, Israel) 5 Stars
February 17, 2009
This is an excellent book for anyone planning to use an insulin pump. It is worth reading BEFORE you get your pump, so you can get used to doing the complicated regimin BEFORE you start and not all at once, once you get the pump. The book is full of information and quite technical, but that is what you need.

Outstanding! by Donna Ehler (Barefoot Bay, Floirda) 5 Stars

Excellent reference book by newT1DM (Wisconsin, USA) 4 Stars

I've heard this book called "the pumper's Bible," and it probably has as universal appeal to pumpers as the Bible once had in the world. Walsh provides a great deal of easily accessible information so that anyone who uses an insulin pump (or even just uses insulin) will get something from it. My only caveat is that the "rules" are like many other "rules" - they have their exceptions. All the recommended numbers/percentages are based on averages. So, for example, if you eat a low-carb diet, the percentage of total daily insulin use made up by one's basal dose is higher than he recommends.
