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.

Pump like a pro!

The endocrinologist at the last visit, "I've never seen someone able to get the basal setting so tight." Well, I was able to do that thanks to this book. This is ten times better than the pump training class.

I am a former pump user now using multiple injections. I was especially interested in the causes of infusion site failure. I found much of the information useful as I want to avoid high and low blood glucose levels. My opinion is that all persons need to educate themselves and have less reliance on the visit to the endocrinologist.

The Pumping Bible

Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2016

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

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2018

Verified Purchase

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.

Type 1 looking to recalibrate my basal rate

Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2018

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.

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.

I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to know more about using a pump to deliver insulin. It gave me confidence to use a pump and understand when adjustments might be needed along with support of diabetes nurse.

Got this today, and love it already. There's a decent amount of prose, but lots of information on formulae etc. It'll make both an interesting read, and a valuable long-term reference.

I've been type 1 for 33 years. I've been on the pump for ~10 years. I'm continually updating my knowledge on the subjects and every book I read, I learn something new. This book is no exception. It goes into detail on how to calculate and test your basal, bolus, carb factor, correction factor, different types of infusion sets and when the set may be the source of your problems.. Common issues that pop up and insight into what the possible causes may be. And depending on your issue, where to start to correct it.

I don't use a CGM on a consistent basis. I wish I could but I'm not covered for them. This book covers them thoroughly also.

Even if you don't use CGM, it's worth a read for the information on pumps.

Edición lamentable. Es un cuadernillo malo.

Reviewed in Spain on April 4, 2018

Verified Purchase

Se supone que es la versión mejorada del libro clásico de bombas de insulina de J. Walsh.
En este caso el "libro" es un cuadernillo malo, la impresión es lamentable, el cartoncillo de la portada se dobla con mirarlo y la espiral se sale.
Respecto al contenido, no han cambiado nada ó casi nada (yo de momento no he encontrado ninguna novedad respecto al previo).
Me parece fatal que un libro que tiene una tirada tan grande, que es un clásico en manejo de bombas de insulina, se haya convertido en un cuadernillo mal hecho. Ni siquiera se ha notado en el precio, que sigue rondando los 30 euros.
A pesar de todo, lo recomiendo si tienes una bomba de insulina porque trae consejos prácticos que no puedes encontrar en otros sitios.
