Comprehensive information not found elsewhere
This book provides recommendations for starting settings and subsequent adjustments of insulin pumps for insulin-dependent diabetics. I read the book about 5 months ago and followed the recommendations. My glucose control has improved dramatically as evidenced in the historic graphs my pump produces. I have been very frustrated in the lack of good advice provided by my endocrinologist. This book is a must read for anyone struggling to control glucose using an insulin pump.

The Pumping Bible
We have always called this the pumping Bible. John Walsh provides amazing clear guidance on using an insulin pump! We purchased his original edition when our child began using an insulin pump and found it full of very useful information. She is away at college and we felt it was time to get her own pumping bible! If you are new to pumping or long in the tooth...this is a very needed tool in your toolbox! Buy it now!!!

Has so much more information than the older version
I wasn’t sure if I really needed this book because I have the previous edition already. However I’m so glad I bought it. It has a lot more charts and graphs to help solve blood sugar questions. It’s also spiral-bound which is very helpful. Just one or two of the updated shirts made this book worth the price.

Good overview of pumping
Nice information on pumping and diabetes management. Very helpful information on equipment and strategies for managing type 1 diabetes in particular.

Tell you exactly what pumping insulin means and entails
Great resource book, especially if you are about to go on an insulin pump. Written clearly for the end user but would benefit most doctors who are sadly behind the times in diabetic treatment methods. Highly recommend.

Excellent for pump newbies and seasoned practitioners.
Great update of the older edition, to include newer pumps and insulin. As always, if you know nothing about pumps...this is a good start. I am a nurse practitioner, a CDE, and BC-ADM, and this was a tremendous help when I first started to do pumps. Recommend this above any other book out there.

Great for insulin pump newbies !
Great book for insulin pump users or people who are new to insulin pumps. Diabetic since 9 years old, been on injections for 17 years before changing to a pump and this has helped me so much!

Type 1 looking to recalibrate my basal rate
Just arrived so just beginning to read, but i had the third version and see this has been updated. Looking to recalibrate my pumping settings /diabetes care. I am a Type 1 for over 30 years and have been gaining weight and having odd lows so think perhaps I need to work on my basal rate again.
