Hal Goldstein replied to Lindsey's discussion 'Using Lantus for Basal and Pump for Boluses, Anyone Tried It?' in the group Pumping Our Insulin"I was on Lantus. I started at 20 units a night, I kept getting krazy A1c above 7 like you. Eventually I was up to 45 units a night. To me, that was a painful shot everynight. I was also on 3 shots of apridra every day with my meals. I am now on a…"

Jim replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"Also do be aware that you do occasionally get bad sensor lots, so if you're having lots of way-off values, don't assume the sensors are perfect. After several times on the phone with MM during my first few weeks, last night they decided I…"
Hal Goldstein replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"Dave' I will keep that in mind. I am going to try a few things first. Then if that does not work, I will call Medtronics and go from there. Thanks, Hal Goldstein itshal2@yahoo.com"
Hal Goldstein replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"Thank You for for your comment. I do love my MM722 pump. It is my best friend. I will keep trying the cgm.
Thanks Hal Goldstein itshal2@yahoo.com"
Hal Goldstein replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"I just wanted to thank you for your comment. I am going to try the night befor like you said and I will increase my fluid intake to see if that helps. I will let you know... Thank You. Hal Goldstein itshal2@yahoo.com"

Hosanna Bielby replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"I love the MM 722 with realtime because it really helps me notice the trends. if you calibrate correctly, that will solve nearly all the problems in my experience. make sure that your bg is very steady when you calibrate, and always keep the pump as…"
Jim replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"Mine definitely gets off sometimes, and in particular, during the first few hours after activation - it seems to really need that second calibration. Even then I find it occasionally gets out of whack and can be off by 100 points or more at other…"
awillie replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"I agree with Jenny... putting the sensor in the night before you hook it up to the transmitter is the way to go. Another suggestion I have is to check your fluid intake. I initially had troubles with mismatch numbers and lost sensors and such, but…"
Jenny replied to Hal Goldstein's discussion 'Does any use Medtronics Real time continuois glucouse monitoring for paradigm 722'"On owning the CGMS for a little over a year, I've had maybe 3-4 'bad sensors' rrors and such. Generally, once I learned my bod, I put in a sensor the night before I want to start it. This gives it time to settle in and get wet in the…"
