Frequenty Asked Questions

 

  • Can I sleep in and vary the times that I get up each morning?

    • Yes! Since your body is getting insulin all the time, there is less worry about sleeping in. The pump can be adjusted to give the right amount of insulin to stay in control even when sleeping late.

 

 

    For teens, one of the greatest benefits of using the pump is the ability to sleep late. Once you have your basal rates figured out, you can sleep as late as you want, without worrying about needing to get up and eat or take an insulin shot.
