Hi everyone, I am new here and have been diabetic for 23 years and finally got a pump yesterday. I am after a bit of advice, did any body elses' insulin intake drop dramatically after starting on the pump? They set me up on 20% lower basel with two more lower profiles. I have already had to drop to the lowest profile and have now had to use a temp basel rate of 50% to prevent going low. Going back to see DSN on Friday. Has any one else had experience of this? My Carb ratios have also dropped from 1.5:1 to 1:1.
