[QUOTE="Nicola M, post: 2636934, member: 81557"] I'm not as well versed in Tandem although have learned enough about the system from being on these forums. I'm not sure whether you are just on the Tandem or have a CGM but perhaps you would benefit from a CGM that integrates with the Tslim to provide a closed-loop system. I'm a little biased when it comes to this as it works really well for me and I know it isn't available to everyone but just a thought. I know it is frustrating to be told because you are in range 70% of the time they aren't bothered and they have said the same thing to me, in a way I do get it since my HbA1c in April came out at 40/5.8% with 73% in range, 1-2% above/below range and the rest in "mid-high" range. Swapping from pens to a pump is hard and unfortunately getting things perfectly right takes time, as long as you are confident your basal rate is correct everything else will fall into place pretty quickly, you may find your carb ratios need changing, since moving to closed-loop mine have changed again baring in mind I've been on a pump now for 8 years.
