This is the first I am reading about this (we go in June). My daughter also wears an insulin pump. We are staying onsite and will have Express Pass privileges, so hopefully the wait won't be long assuming she has to unhook her pump to ride these rides. If you are staying offsite, I know that Universal offers a pass (similar to Disney's DAS) that will reduce the wait for one ride at a time. It might be something to look into for these rides in particular simply because it is not great for Type 1's to be unhooked (and potentially without their other supplies too if everything has to go in the locker) for a long time - especially because the excitement of waiting in line for a roller coaster is bound to greatly affect a diabetic's blood glucose (maybe causing it to skyrocket, maybe causing it to plummet - you never know!)
I would contact the park before you go to see if it will even be necessary to unhook her pump. I don't think it is.
