    Pump choice

    Have been told the next time I'm due to change my pump I can either have the ypsomed pump or the medtrum nano. Would be interested to hear from anyone who is using either pump. The pros and cons thanks

    Control iq issues on tandem t slim pump

    Am totally fed up with this control iq and this pump. It seems that control is good for the first day after a set change but by the 2nd day control is all over the place.

    Pump break

    I just feel that I need a break from it after being attached to it all the time. If I had a tubeless pump then maybe I'd feel differently. Have had pump breaks in the past and then went back on it after a few weeks.

    Pump break

    I got on ok when I've had pump breaks previously it's just at the moment the pump only seems to work well when I use it in my stomach and can't keep using it all the time.

    Pump break

    I'm thinking about having a pump break has anyone else done this if so how did you manage? Have been on an insulin pump now for more than 10 years and just fancy having a change for a while.

    Hypo issues

    They wasn't too bothered and said that overall control was good I am over 70% in range most of the time and just said to adjust my pump settings which I have done but it still hasn't worked.
