Hi all - puzzled today- I changed the infusion set this morning and assumed all was okay. Scanned my libre & saw my sugars creeping up, corrected, ate some carrots & hummus (dosed for this) & by the time I was home I was at 20!!!!! I can only assume the pump wasn't working properly. I think the...

Agree / I feel fine within a few minutes but feel far worse when sugars run high. Last hypo was last week after an aerobic class.

Hi - not sure if there's a relationship between the two but I am a 'night owl' & struggle to get to sleep. Sometimes I wonder if it's worry but not sure if there's a link between T1D & sleep.

@catapillar - how awful. Glad you're ok & feeling ok now. [emoji8]

Hi @minniemac- this happened to me a few years' ago with Levemir. My DSN switched me to Lantus & I had no more problems. Hope you get sorted.

Hi @Krisjan - yes I did go through the scanner as hubby & kids were way ahead & I was stressed anyway! The security agent insisted all would be OK [emoji51] I did receive error codes when I landed but all was okay after turning pump on & off a few times! I'm sure all will be fine. This was back...

I was advised to halve my basal injection (I did a split dose & halved the morning one) when I had a late morning anaesthetic. Hope all goes well.

@becca59 - do u get it mainly in your cheeks?

Oral Lichen Planus. IBS but not sure that's auto immune. Horrid that there are so many auto immune conditions.

Hi @vans - I do the same - disconnect it & am only in the water for around 45 mins. Occasionally I'm slightly high after so I just bolus a little. HTH

I was asked to go through the full body scanner last summer at Gatwick. The Security Officer insisted it would be fine! [emoji51] Whereas Mahon & Basel airports were quite aware of it. The 2nd time out of Gatwick they were fine.

Hi @slayer - I have the Insight pump. When I get a new infusion set out (around every 5 days) the tubing is part of that so I just pop a new 1 on then. Yes my last cannula made my tummy bleed but it doesn't always. I think @himtoo is right - the basal was probably set like that & your DSN can...

Hi @Chloesnavy - I don't have any experience of antidepressants but hope someone will be along shortly to advise. Hope all goes well & they help things. [emoji2]

I get 250 a time (5 pots). My DSN wrote to my GP before I went in my pump to increase the amount. @nmr1991 - that's awful. Hope u get it sorted [emoji106]

I was 37 - they thought type 1 but then assumed type 2 until I had the GAD test.

Hi @dazwalshe - I take a vit c supplement every night & a B complex too. I haven't noticed any change to my sugars. As @noblehead says - perhaps basal testing to check. Good luck [emoji2]

Yes I've had massages a couple of times with the pump. As @Snapsy said - I moved the cannula to my tummy and took the pump out of its belt. I have also disconnected it when I had a 30min back massage. Sugars were fine. Enjoy the massage! [emoji2]

Congrats! @blueeyed81 - it feels fab doesn't it?!

Hi @PeterGC - sorry to hear this. How are you coping with the symptoms? I don't have that but do have painful arthritis. Wishing u well [emoji2]

Hi @berylc - Yes type 1s defo can. My sugars have been way better since lchf. [emoji3]
