[QUOTE="gillsb, post: 1003508, member: 56559"] Hope I am in the right place. I am the mother of a type 1 (9years now) previously on a Medtronic pump but upgraded to the new Accuchek Insight in January. After a nightmare 6 months with several replacement pumps and numerous handsets the final straw came when the pump appeared to change its own settings and cut off her background insulin altogether. Pump was taken back again and another replacement issued but we have lost all confidence and she has been back on MDI since. Accucheck have the report back on the pump but wont release it at the moment. I am the admin on a facebook group "Parents of Type 1 Uni Students" and through this have discovered we are not alone, there are several people who have major concerns about this new pump but nothing seems to be happening other than them being given the original combo pump. I am getting nowhere fast and at the moment we are in limbo land! Has anyone else had problems as I am gradually building a list of people with issues as this pump frightens me - hearing about random boluses being delivered etc is quite scarey. Something needs to be done! [/QUOTE]
