I’m on the 780g with Simplera sync using Novorapid and often used the dual bolus on the 640g pump. I found the dual bolus useful if eating pasta etc . Now my levels drop after meals as the food seems to take longer to process. However I find the Smart Guard excellent, except the Simplera only...

Dexta , thanks for your reply, I’m hoping it’s just a bedding in issue. Before the Simplera I was on the Guardian [emoji639] and the Libre [emoji638] before that. The first [emoji639] Simplera were spot on. Have to see if it Syncs.

Hi, hope you are well! Been on the Medtronic 780g for 3 weeks. Changed the Simplera sensor today, after the 2 hour warm up the sensor read 21.1 I did 3 BG tests and I was 14.1. I kept putting in the BG readings manually, but it keeps reverting to a higher reading. Now showing 18 on the smart...

Thank you Searley for your reply. I always get out the pool on the low side as the class is pretty full on and I take sips or orange juice during the class. I’ll try a small bolus when I get out the pool, see how that goes. Appreciated.

Hi all, I’ve been on the Medtronic 780g with Simplera for 2 weeks, previously I was using the Medtronic 640g pump with Guardian 3. I’ve been on a pump for 12 years. I do an Aqua fitness class twice a week and previously I used to set a temporary basal rate decreasing the basal to 75% 45...

I tend to change the infusion sets around 3 days.

Do you get loss of signal a fair bit. Yesterday I was out at my daughters and the system kept losing signal.

Thanks searley, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately as it was during the night, I left it until the morning. It’s all running now this sensor will go the 7 days.

Hi Nicole M, I’m on the Medtronic 780g closed loop and have been using my legs for my cannulas for a long time. I find it works well, but I wear the pump on a waistband round my waist ( stomach doesn’t work well for me) and the normal 1.8 reservoirs. I’ve only occasionally knocked one off...

I’ve been on the Medtronic 780 with Simplera for 12 days now and the sensor gave up during the night. When the Smartguard was running the Basal wasn’t highlighted on the pump. I turned the Smartguard off as I was concerned the Basal wasn’t running. I haven’t as yet put another Simplera on , but...

Hi, I’ve got the same issue, blank screen today, I’ve spoken to helpline and they just said there’s a problem and don’t know when it will be resolved. I’ve got the Reader 2 so have put new sensor on and using the reader. Hope they resolve it quickly.

Hi, I’ve had a couple of operations in the past and had to remove the pump. I was attached to a sliding scale which was monitered during the op. I stayed on the sliding scale until I recovered. This was a while ago and wasn’t using the Libre sensor then.

Hi Vicky, Not sure how to do that, I changed my sensor yesterday and deleted the app and reinstalled, it didn’t make any difference. I’ve turned the signal loss alarm off and don’t appear to get alarms now. I dipped a bit overnight and was unaware. My diabetes team gave me an Android phone for...

Hi BarryM, Yep on both occasions. The signal loss keeps going off, even when the phone is next to me. Thanks

Hi, Just wanted some advice on the Libre 2 sensors. I’ve been using these since 2017 and initially had the Libra sensor with the reader. I then changed to a secondhand iPhone SE 2nd generation and used it successfully with the first generation Libre. When I changed to the Libre 2 I was unable to...

Thank you h884. I was using the Libre sensor 1 which worked fine with I phone SE, I changed to the Libre 2 last summer and the sensor stopped working on the phone a little time after. I use the reader to scan, but I would like to be able to share my results with my diabetes team. I use a...

I wear the quick sets on the top of my legs.

Has anyone experienced a problem with their Libre sensor not working with an iPhone SE.

Hi Rokaab, I’ve been using a pump for 7 years, I use the Medtronic 640g and like you found using my stomach painful and a bit hit and miss, often found my BG rising after a set change.I use the Quick set but have also used the Mios original sets. I have for some while now been using the top of...
