Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted Account" data-source="post: 2034620">I have not used the Medtronic but understand there are a few options available such as metal vs plastic (which you have tried) and 90 degree vs 30 degree. If you want to return to the pump, it maybe worthwhile trying out different cannulas.Regarding night time highs, that suggests to me the basal rates need to be changed at night. Perhaps it is worth doing some basal testing and tweaking the basal rates to match your daughter's needs.If she has a Libre, this is much easier. I cannot tell you whether to return to the pump or not but I have found my Animas Vibe (which I will need to change soon) has helped my bg management and reduced highs and lows.However we have a love hate relationship as I find it large, difficult to hide and uncomfortable as it has not caused me to gain weight (it is hard against my boney hips) which brings me to your daughter's weight gain. I do not understand how it is pump related. Perhaps it is related to her unhappiness with the pump.Good luck on your decision... it is not a given.</blockquote>
