[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2660558, member: 372717"] A couple of days ago my blood sugar climbed relentlessly and my short acting insulin didn't appear to be having any effect. So I tried dialing up 20 units to see whether it would fill the cap of my needle to the line, and discovered that it was only delivering a couple of units. I tried changing the needle - no difference. I then took out the cartridge and put it back in again, and it seems to be working normally again. Anyone got any suggestions as to what is going on here? edited to add it's a humalog pen [/QUOTE]
