Thanks I only changed my site yesterday Numbers are in range now- just frustrating as felt that they were stuck at 12 for ages Any advice??

Good morning I am using the Medtronic 640 I have 2 different basal rates set up- 1 for work the other for days off This am 7am woke up & was 8- gave pre bolus of 1.8 units for coffee (oat milk) Half an hour later Dexcom read 9.1, so had my coffee as it was needed 40 mins later after bolusing...

What about a hid-in pump band I find them great, wear it just below my bra, comfortable & keeps it out of the way

Yes I don’t doubt that about the basals varying from day to day What CGM if any did you use before?

Thank you Nicola I am due to upgrade to this pump in January I currently use Dexcom CGM What would you say the differences are with the CGM? Many thanks

Hi so I am due to upgrade to the Minimed 780 in January Have just had a call with Medtronic about this & found out pricing if I was to get the Guardian 4 sensor - it seems that way you will get the most out of the pump I am currently using the 630 I am about to buy a laptop - as need to send...

Thank you Juicyj Yes changed my set & insulin this am Do feel a bit under the weather- I’m drinking plenty of water - but did have a milky coffee when I came back(a treat) numbers are 7 & level at the moment Spoke with my nurse- she wants to see pump data before we make any changes - trouble is...

Thanks Not a great start this am- woke up Dexcom - 12.6 Gave 3.6 to correct & cover breakfast- 22g carbs Have risen to 15.9

Yesterday started pretty good- for lunch had a wrap- 15 grams of carbs- with chicken, lettuce & small bit of coleslaw- So I bolused for 25 units to cover it & as you can see didn’t work So is it my insulin to carb ratio could be wrong?

Thank you both for your reply’s Yes it starting rising yesterday about lunchtime I bolus about 15 mins before I eat

This is how today has been Feel rubbish

I am using the minimed 640g

Thank you but overnight my levels are steady

I am on Medtronic pump- this is kind of what I thought Just tricky with work to do the basal testing

Hi, so had good numbers though the night, this am - gave insulin for coffee-gave about 25%more insulin than needed- to cover it After about 25 mins I was climbing Dexcom read 10 & rising (1 arrow) I am confused as to whether this is partially the dawn phenomenon or my basal?? Also had a low carb...

Hi I have been back on the pump for about 5 weeks now Today at work, had a snack(half grapefruit/ 4 Nairn’s cheese oatcakes) gave a little more bolus than needed- numbers were 6 before. Shortly after it was 7 & slightly rising - so I gave 0.5, later they reached 10, gave 1 unit- ended up at 15...

Well I bit the bullet & ordered Dexcom G6 yesterday - it’s coming today - excited Had enough of all the issues with Freestlye Libre Will be interesting to see what my doctors come back with about the Dexcom 1

Do you think it would be an idea to send my pump nurse these screenshots to All I get is aaah it’ll come soon [emoji30]
