The 28th is a bit far away, obviously something is not working for you, they told me I would use at least 20% less insulin on a pump, can't you phone your DSN and get them to see you before then, if it was me I would go back on mdi until they see me , don't put yourself at risk xSorry to hear that Karen, first pump 4 years ago was a insight , had some problems with the teflon cannulas ie useless on the right side of my body, poor absorption, when I worked well i was using 20% less insulin compared to mdi, since changing to the ypsopump and the steel cannulas it's been brilliant, 25% less insulin than mdi and a in range of 95%, it's not tubeless and you can't bolus from the app . I turned down the omnipod due to the cannulas and maybe that's the problem for you, hope they can sought you out x

Morning all, hope you don't mind me jumping in on this chat....fbg this morning was 5.7. Gotta say this was a bit of a relief because my 2 hour test after dinner was 13.5. It was my first day with a meter so I was shocked to see it that high :/
Ive actually had a good day with this pump today best yet x4.8 for me.
I found with the teflon cannulas only a few places worked well, I also find doing an extended bolus of 15 minutes before meals and eating after about 25 to 30 minutes works well xIve actually had a good day with this pump today best yet x
