[QUOTE="Binary, post: 1024978, member: 244920"] My sons was 7.2% or 55 a couple of days ago, on the Omnipod since May so third reading and the highest yet as the two previous were both 6.9% or 52. Little disappointed as the average BG reading over the last 90 days was 7.3 and prior to the previous test the average over 90 days was showing as 7.7 so was hopeful of an improvement. Not really convinced about the accuracy of this test though. A week prior to going on the pump he had a higher then previous result of about 7.7%. Started on the pump and figures went up and were all over the place initially as we started on a rather optimistic carb to insulin ratio as advised for safety reasons and a couple of weeks after with figures slowly getting back to the desired levels he had his first 6.9% which was surprising given the change despite his BG figures being worse over the previous three weeks. Consultant was pleased but i was really hopeful of getting a 6.5% or below, I certainly didn't expect to be back in the 7's, still he will have another test in about 3 months and it is quite obvious that over time there will be many ups and downs.
