[QUOTE="EK297, post: 2420326, member: 545875"] Thanks, [USER=450212]@Rokaab[/USER]. Here, we have (in theory, at least!) a choice of the OmniPod Dash or the Medtronic 670. I like the look of the OmniPod as it is tubeless but open to either. Like you, I find my night-time levels unpredictable. Last night, I went to bed and my sugars were 5.7 and steady. Usual dose of Levemir. Woke up in the night and they were in the 20s! Had to check I had taken my insulin - definitely had! The night before, I went to bed with similar levels. Had eaten the same meal and at a very similar time. My Libre alarm went off three times during the night to tell me my levels were going low. It feels like my insulin is absorbed differently each time I inject at the minute, and it’s becoming harder and harder to predict. Driving me up the wall a bit! Anyway, glad you finally managed to get a pump and that it’s working well for you. Do you mind me asking which part of the country you’re from? Seems to be such a difference from one area to the next in terms of accessing pumps, Libres etc Em [/QUOTE]
