[QUOTE="Minnie_19, post: 1286666, member: 123429"] Hi Just wanted a bit of info on Continous blood glucose monitoring and insulin pumps. I'm currently using the Medtronic minimed paradigm but I'm due to go into clinic in the next few weeks to take a look at some new pumps as I'm due an upgrade. I'm not yet sure which pumps will be available to me, which is a shame. I've been thinking for sometime about CBGM, particularly because I have had in the past night time hypos which I've needed assistance to treat. This hasn't happened for sometime but it would be nice to have the reassurance that I would be woken if my levels began to drop. It would also be helpful from a work point of view to have better tabs on my glucoses levels when I'm not able to test. So I know I'm after a CGM that will alarm when my levels are going out of range, but other than that I'm not sure. It would make sense if my new pump had the ability to do this also. Has anyone got any recommendations? I've read a little about the Animas pump and the Dexcom, what do people think of this system? Thanks [/QUOTE]
