[QUOTE="aphex2k, post: 2152782, member: 912"] No I don't believe it's my carb ratios. (Currently at 8.5g/u Insulin Sens factor 1.6/u and active time 3hrs, target 5.0-6.5) Not entirely sure why it allows an adjustable target range as I understood the pump only had 2 pre set targets 6.7 and 8.3. I don't know what, if any effect the user selectable target range makes any difference to the pumps inbuilt choices? The more I read other people's experiences, it has a lot to do with the algorithm and the fact the FDA and Medtronic really don't want people going hypo while connected to this kit, which is essentially the first hybrid close loop available to the general public. While I understand the reluctance to effectively manage high blood sugar, I would (and do) prefer manual mode for correcting. At the moment I'm still in the mindset of correcting and getting back to normal as quickly and safely as possible. Today, my level's been flat since midnight last night, bar a wee spike around 9am after my breakfast. [/QUOTE]
