Animas Pump

Well, the first question — yes, it was the siren, and yes, I had to take the batteries out to fix it, is yes — that’s the way the pump is designed.

The second question left the customer service rep with his mouth open, no one had ever complained that the siren was TOO quiet. We decided we’d wait until I slept through another siren before dealing with it.

Also — I had to turn the pump down by 10% this morning. I was at 96 at 8:30, down to 93 at 9:00 so cranked it down and stayed stable all morning.

I haven’t changed my lunch basal setting yet. I want to make sure there is a problem before I do, but am watching close. Abbott/Therasense/Medisense will love me because I am going through so many test strips.

I might want the CGMS now. I can get one for three days, but need to find out hw often. I would rather use it when I need it.
