[QUOTE="DTay9999, post: 2388520, member: 311196"] Yes I could raise the alert level, although the example I posted was fairly modest, others have gone much higher. A potential problem is that when the alert wakes you up and you see your SG is high, you might be tempted to give a quick correction, only to go hypo an hour later, and then of course hyper, because its a pain to deal with things properly when you're half asleep! This happened to me the first time, next time I checked with the meter first. I think more should be made of this as it is just another shortcoming of the technology that we need to be aware of. I have not seen anything in the Medtronic literature, and it has not been mentioned at the pump meetings at the hospital. But we carry on living and learning! [/QUOTE]
