People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
First off please could this be changed by @Administrator to the pump forum please? Pump forum not an option on iphones.
Well... I've been told by my new tertiary care team at new diabetic pump clinic (different hospital) to go back to basic settings when going back to pump....
I find this incredible... i had a pump for 6 years and solely due to qty of occlusions had to come off it. So now two months on the situ is this:
To go from 1 to 7, 1 to 8 and 1 to 9 bolus ratio when last used to a 1 to 20!!! But if I disagree to go to 1 to 12 for every meal.
To only have 5 basal rates and istead of allowing my .88, 1.15, 1.25 that sorts DP and WP absolutely fine to have 3 hours of 0.8.
I only stop pump if I have 2-3 occlusions a week. 2-3 occlusions a week is horrendous amount!!
Target 7-8... normally for me 5-7.
Quite cheesed off as they are setting me back 6 years ago....
The problem was onlynocclusions and hypers because. Of them, not hypo's... the doc was also giving compliments to my exactness with everything and levels and being able to easily identify cannula probs because I am so OTT... so this has really rattled me....
Jyst even wondering if I should even bother going back to pump..having highs and being told to have a maximum of 5 basal rates in 24 hours (normally they only 4 different rates is not what suits my body and I'm totally fed up with health system after a GP totally mis prescribed an item today and I had to get it corrected. Said GP also said yesterday he would speak to my gastro consultant and get back to me and didn't....
Just fed up totally I guess...
