Very angry with my pump!!!

Hi @claire1991 I found i got air bubbles a lot at the end when pregnant. My personal theory was my body temp rose more and therefore air bubbles came more. I found the solution was to check the reservoir every few hours to make sure it was ok and push it out if i spotted one. Hope that helps. I had a medtronic.

Thank you, it's got a good chance that's what it is, I'm hot all of the time!

I've been keeping a very close eye on it and so far it's all been okay.

I'm having an off day and nothing is going right!!!

I somehow managed to pull my pump out during the night but I didn't realise until mid morning because it was in my back and was still stuck on :(

When I realised I was 15.6 and changed infusion sets and thought I'd fixed it.
No. There was an air bubble in the tube so still haven't managed to get bloods down and the ketones are setting in along with a stomach ache.

Does anyone else get stomach ache when their bloods are high?

Where the hell do air bubbles come from?!

I had so many things I wanted to do today and I don't have the energy :(

What a waste of a day.

And, to top it off, I've got an appointment with my consultant tomorrow morning!
