So my blood is currently 15 after a hypo of 2.9 at 1.40am.

I've gone back onto the pump last night as mine broke at the weekend leaving me back on MDI. I took half dose of lantus yesterday morning at about 7am. Really not sure where i stand on this one ...
 
Your pump broke? Already? What happened? If it were me, and I may be wrong, I would set your pump back up as it was before and test every couple of hours. If your bg doesn't come down after a couple of hours I would give a correction but monitor it very closely. The lantus will soon be completely out of your system and then you'll be back on track. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm completely wrong!
 
Like Lucie, its not that good that the vibe has gone belly up so soon. If you took a tiny dose of Lantus, it shouldn't linger for long. Its when its been used for a week or so, that its effect can linger on a bit even when its stopped. The same goes for Levemir.

Lucie I messaged you. priming issues potentially caused by user. anyhow dont break your pump on the weekend. No quibbles though.
