My standard deviation yesterday was 126 mg/dL. I think that qualifies for out of control.

Basal testing!! Do you do regular basal tests?

The pump is only as good as the setting we put into it. So you need to get your settings right (which isn't always easy). Also, do you have the book "Pumping Insulin" by John Walsh?

Brand new to this group. My husband and I just had a discussion about the struggles he's been having lately with his numbers. I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this group. Hope to hear from you all soon!

Hi, Im new to this site. Ive been type 1 for 8 years. I have been on a pump for a little over 3 years. Still the lowest my A1c has been is around 8 and that was right after I went on the pump.

I have had good days and bad days. Overall, I think that I have pretty good control, making my obsession. However, things did become rather irratic after starting nursing school full-time. I think that some of us are more responsive to the hormones and fluctuations produced by stress than others. I have made an effort to help teach fellow nursing students as much as I can about Type 1 diabetes from a hands-on experience. The last thing we need is more healthcare providers who think it is simply a matter of good behavior, right? There are so many factors that can contribute to fluctuations, and stress is mine! School is one of the most stressfule tjhings I have ever done, and studying and 4am, and of course Pad Thai, never could eat that even though I love it.
