Pump
I've had ypsopump for 2 years, I've had about 300+ occlusions, software upgrades which don't appear to be tested, been in contact with ypsomed customer support who don't seem to support, batteries which drain quickly.
I'm currently battling with high sugars followed by low sugars followed by high sugars followed by low sugars, no interventions by me needed.
Only had 45 years experience in t1.
Anyone else had similar troubles? I can't wait to get rid of this before it kills me. Accu chek insight was much more reliable and predictable.
 
Welcome to the forum @davem606

Sorry you're having these problems. I don't have any experience using this pump. What have your hospital team said?
If you haven't already done so, I'd suggest doing some basal rate tests, because if that's not correct, it causes a lot of issues.
You could also look at how long before meals you're bolusing, adjusting if necessary, and also insulin/carb ratios.
