[QUOTE="bluntneedle, post: 423920, member: 53237"] Hi, Mill I have recently adopted a patch pump. My Hbh1 for the three Months before was 8.9 after exactly three Months of patch it is 6.5. I can not remember the last time I had such a good Hbh1, been Dia for 20 yrs. I can say that I am glad I did it and that it is probably one of the best things you could have done for your daughter. Ok and no it is not normal to be so high when you switch to a pump. The software is really easy to get along with. Understanding the basics of pumping is important. Are you setting up the profiles yourself ? Knowing what Insulin and when is also needed for a pump. I am still fine tuning after three Months. Do not give up check the Profile, check the Carb Calibration settings and be Brave.The Pump/patch has a good security system I have tested it. It beeps when it is empty, it beeps when it is jammed, it beeps when I nock it on the door frame, it beeps when it's had enough, it beeps when I have it on % reduction, it beeps when I stop the infusion to adjust the profile. Do not despair check the settings all of them. A pity that I can not go through it with you step for step. Do not give up.
