Welcome to this episode of the Your Diabetes Insider podcast. It's summer, and today, we're diving into a topic close to every insulin-dependent, pump-using listener's heart: the insulin pump break!

Whether you're lounging by the pool, hiking a mountain trail, or simply tired of doorknob mishaps, there are moments when ditching the pump feels liberating.

We'll discuss the convenience of pumps versus the freedom of MDI, sharing personal anecdotes and practical tips. From managing basal insulin with long-acting analogs to calculating boluses without a pump's algorithmic help, there's a lot to consider.
