[QUOTE="Bill Wireman, post: 2556673, member: 562110"] I assume you have first transferred your basil and bolus settings from your previous pump had already been setup to match your body's insulin request and control. So, you are already starting with a known control point for your A1c and should not see the ramping up of your BS's. The difference is the infusion set has changed with the new pump and you may have to modify the installation of the MiniMed. When you remove the needle protective cap, never pull it but rotate only until it disconnect's or the needle will pull back into the sleeving before insertion. This will result in the soft plastic tubing rolling on the edge due to the pressure of the skin as the needle is tapered and this will affect the delivery of insulin to your body. Hope this helps, as I also had a similar problem when changing over to the new infusion set. [/QUOTE]
