it took me so long to realize that i needed more insulin around different times of my cycle. if only this was discussed and fine tuned more often with female patients! and still knowing this, every month it frustrates me to see how much more insulin i need.

I thought the video was great. You cleared up some obscure points about the pump regarding the correction factor. I always wondered why the pump always seem to make puny corrections compared to what I would do. Finding that happy medium between aggressive and conservative changes is always a struggle but having more information allows you to make better decisions. Thanks for providing some clarity on this.

Thanks so much. Have had the same correction factor for so long that I just thought I didn't have to change it. For some reason I had to change it now and this video helped. Went from 1-1 to 1-1.2 (ML) Cheers!!!1

Thank you I been on dialysis for 6 years it is a hard battle diabetes is a evil enemy

got my tandem x2 yesterday and it makes a big... well almost huge difference... i feel great... but it tend to overshoot when I eat a lot of carbs and it get me in low blood sugar afterwards... from what i read i should give my bolus at least 30 minutes before eating instead of right away of afterward... which is not a easy thing to do... I did not have the chance to test the activiy part but from what I read i should activate it at least an hour before my exercise anyway thank you for your inputs it is helpfull

I've had great control too with Tandem X2, but wonder if Omnipod is more liberating....sometimes I get tired of having the Tandem and tubing hanging on me. Curious to see how it's been for you!

Thanks for the video. I have a control IQ t-slim pump. My blood sugar at night (sleeping time) is frequently very low and it wakes me up every 1.5 to 2 hours. I have only one correction factor and one profile, and a sleep activity that is turned on from 9:00pm to 6:00 am. How can I fine tune it so that I can have a good night's sleep?

Good info. I have a curious question... On the corrections the Control IQ initiates... does this get added to the Insulin On Board number??

We are new to all of this our 9 year old daughter was recently diagnosed we are on her third dexcom and it has proven to be very inaccurate even after calibration if you are using the pump with the G6 how trustworthy is it I fear of overdosing if we where to ever consider going to the pump

My husband just did the update 7.4 and afterwards his readings are so high and control IQ doesn’t seem to be working properly .. has you heard any issues with that update ?

I want to change the target range on my Tslim x2 from 70-110 instead of 70-180. How do I do this???

I am struggling with control IQ raising basals too high to correct a high in sleep mode.

Ariel , thanks for all your help, o live in an area we’re there are no CDE, and all your videos have help me with my control . I have had diabetes for 43 yrs and am doing very good with it. Thanks you , John

Has anyone had better control if you turn control IQ off ?

Lol my doctor doesn’t even bother analyzing my numbers. I struggle for 3 months trying to make micro changes, and then during the appointment she just writes down my current settings even when I tell her all the trouble I have..

Hi. I am on year 64 with type 1. My only complication is starting to listen to country music. HELP…
