"Begin by calling Medtronic. Perhaps your pump isn't delivering insulin as it is supposed to. Also, change the insulin in the reservoir. How old is it? I had major site problems last year, but solved them by rotating around more. Might you give…"

"I use the MM 522 and wasn't aware of a reservoir problem, although Dave mentioned he had no problem with his reservoirs. I usually get emails regarding recalls...were there any that I missed?"

"Dave, this is a recent issue and identified by medtronic that has since been resolved. I'm glad you and your wife did not receive any of the faulty reservoirs."

hellooo. my name's danielle and I've had diabetes for 8 years. I'm currently on the pump, which definitely has its advantages and disadvantages. I try really hard to keep my sugar under control, but with my school and work schedule and trying to not go low and trying to not go high, it can get really difficult. (as you all know). I also find it difficult whenever I want to lose some weight..does anyone else experience this problem?.. Anyway, I decided to join this thing to meet other people who… Continue

Hey Danielle! I too find it extremely hard to lose weight.. my endo says it's hard to lose weight when you take artificial insulin.. I'm like, "Ohh, great!" ha. I'm trying out the south beach right now and it's SUPER hard cause I'm on phase 1, which is no carbs, no sugar, pretty much vegetables galore and meat/cheese. I'm to the point where I'd rather not look at another veggie but my sugar is insanely good.. it's amazing.. Hasn't reached above 140 and I'm not really even taking my insulin cause I'm not really having anything with carbs..

Anyways, best of luck.. let's keep in touch!
