[QUOTE="Julian_Hands, post: 1432560, member: 324327"] Hi [USER=184290]@Claire007[/USER], My notes are working with the Insight handset and I press the top right tick when finished. I had trouble with the 360 software and it took a while for Accu Check IT to call back but the configurator now works, just need them to send me an update, as the pump came with old software. My basal rates have been fine whilst doing limited activity but last night I reduced my basal by 20% and went out for a 2 hour dog walk and it dropped rapidly, I think I needed to reduce the basal rate say 1 hour before doing such an event? All in all though it's great to be able to bring my control back into range within minutes, unlike Lantus that leaves you fighting all day. I've also noticed that my insulin total daily dosage has reduced by almost 20% from around 50 units per day to around 40 units. I in myself feel allot better, healthier and happier with this treatment as I was getting so frustrated before with the MDI. My evening basal rate needs tweaking as it does seem to trending to rise over night, will bring this up next Tuesday with my DSN. All in all though I'm very happy. [/QUOTE]
