Hi All.
It’s been years since I was last on this site but yet again I need some help.
My last 3 pumps…which I will leave out the manufacturer have all cracked within 6 months to 3 years on the insulin holder and now the battery compartment.
Think you can guess manufacturer now for those using this pump.
I started on pumps around 20 years ago and the quality was very good but sensors not after they were first introduced.
I’ve been on a closed loop system for 2 years now and can’t believe how much my HBA1C has dropped. Within the first six months I went from 99 to 62 and hypos massively reduced so cannot fault the system.
My question is…Are there a lot of people who are experiencing the same problem as I spoke to the technicians and they are in agreement with myself about it being your own body temperature that is making the plastic brittle.
Would appreciate a gauge of how many of us are walking round with this same problem.
Thanks all.
