Minimed 640G

@yingtong has found it very useful. I've tagged him to come and tell you.

Hi TOMJC,I have been using the 640g in conjunction the CGM since May last year and it was life changing for me as I had no hypo awareness at all.I am happy to answer any questions you might have.

Hi TOMJC I've been T1 for over 54 years and been well controlled for the past 45 years and about 5 years ago I lost my 'hypo' awareness,I managed to live with it for about 3 years,then,I had 5 severe disabling hypo's,requiring third party assistance,one of which was at the hospital waiting to see my DSN.She decided that I needed to go on pump with a CGM and it was decided that Medtonic 640g was the answer,the pump was not a problem,but getting CGM funding,but with great support from my Endo and DSN and many meeting it eventually funding was agreed.That a bit of the history,basically I was frightened to sleep in case I had hypo.
Basically the CGM switches the pump off when it see's b/s falling and when it see's b/s riseing it switches the pump back on.Yes there is a lot of work to do when you start pumping.Thankfully it appears that I am starting to get my hypo awareness back,but only time will tell.If I can be of anymore help,please do not hesitate to contact me.
