[QUOTE="lholland37, post: 2542554, member: 559267"] Hi... wish I had an answer but I have the same question. I am a type 1 and on a Tandem insulin pump. I have been a diabetic for 48 years and have had very out of control blood sugars my entire life. This has caused me MANY health issues such as feeding tubes for gastro problems, neuropathy in both legs and feet with pain and numbness and now starting in my left arm. I also recently had a toe amputation. Because of long term diabetes and high cholesterol I now have a 100% blockage in both leg arteries and I am so scared of more amputations. For the first time I have had great blood sugars being on my new pump. I have been on my pump for 5 months. I have always taken 1 unit of novalog for every 15 carbs but all of a sudden I'm experiencing very scary lows with a rapid drop. I am now taking 1 unit for every 40 carbs. There has been no change whatsoever in my life. Anyone have any ideas on what may be happening? [/QUOTE]
