    Ypsopump issues

    Hi, Has anyone who uses Ypsopump had issues with the mylife app and Android phone? (I think IOS is also not working) They have had an update that has rendered the app useless. (This reminds me of the Libre update fiasco). The app just won't sync. Combine this with the mass shortage of...

    HumaPen Luxura HD

    Hi all, I've been using a HumaPen Luxura HD for a long time for my Humalog 3ml cartridges, perfect for me as it has 0.5 unit delivery. I have just been told that Eli Lilly no longer supply this pen! If I want to replace it (keep as a spare, or replace when the one I'm using breaks) I'll have to...
