Many hospitals are now recommending new diabetics to be started on an insulin pump instead of shot, so there it really has no age limit. the biggest concern is the patient- physical activities, trustworthiness, and responsibility. My suggestion would be to talk to your endocrinologist about the possibility and see what he or she has to say about it.
