Jay replied to ALiSON026's discussion 'Hello' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Welcome. I have had my Ping for 4 years this month and my basal is about 50 units/24 hours. Depending on activity, I sometimes set it lower when I am very active. Pump programming is not an exact science. Do not get frustrated. Be ready for HIGHS…"
Sarah replied to ALiSON026's discussion 'Hello' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users"Hi Alison! Welcome to the group! I'm new-ish to the Ping as well (I was MDI for about 23 years, pump about a year). My basal's a bit lower at the moment, but we're still working on getting that all figured out!"
