[QUOTE="iHs, post: 489809, member: 8799"] Hello Beth An insulin pump doesn't work magic. Its ability to control bg levels ok greatly depends on bg tests being done throughout the day (about 6-8) and at times, getting up in the night to test as well. Unless you test and tell the pump what the levels are, it wont know how much insulin you need to cover the carb that you want to eat. So, start testing bg levels and using the results, you can then check on whether the pump settings are correct or need changing.
