[QUOTE="Auckland Canary, post: 840827, member: 70613"] I went on to the Animas Vibe pump last week and so far it has been a total nightmare for me. I was always susceptible to hypo's and although my Hba1c is great at 38 I do have numerous hypos. I was reluctant to try the pump but eventually got onto it after enquiring last year. So far there seems to be no rhyme or reason to what my sugars are. I have had bad hypos nearly every morning and when I have tried to adjust the levels I them wake up in double figures. I got home from work last night and was 2.2, went to bed 10.7 and haven't been in single figures at all today waking up with a 15.2 and 2 readings of 11 before lunch. I know it is early days yet and I need to get the hang of it but in all honesty I was crying my eyes out last night with the frustration of it all. I feel like I have taken a massive step back from a pretty bad position anyway. I will persevere as this is about the only hope I have to improve my control but I certainly am not feeling the love at the moment. [/QUOTE]
