[QUOTE="jgordon5, post: 1109948, member: 84695"] I'm very new to pumping (Animas Vibe) and I'm struggling with the variations I'm finding. I haven't managed to test basal rates properly because I've had difficulties with hypers and hypos, partly due to kinked cannulas and difficulty with insertion. My basal rate is 0.3 dropping for a few hours in the night to 0.2. When I inserted an Inset 30 above my navel yesterday, I found that I couldn't get my BGs up. I was on 3 rising to 4.4 before bedtime. This was after bananas, dates, toast! My I:C is 1:12 but I'm thinking, maybe I should change that? It was if anything not low enough with cannulas below my navel. So I just wondered if anyone else finds this and how you cope with it and how you get level enough to properly test based rates?
