Since the insulin pump model changed, for a more "modelna" I go with my fatal diabetes.
The good thing is that I have had so many problems in investigating, asking technical services, distributors, visitors ...... Well, possible causes are leaving.
I will expose some here, so that they serve as a guide.
I base mainly on the Ypso model, but because of what was commented with other sources (SAT, visitors ...) they are worth other models.
1) You feel that more than once a day, with a more or less relative frequency, the dog's needle burns you on the skin, simply normally, not to adopt any posture that tightens it (as it could be if you carry itIn your stomach and bends) and you check that those days are higher than normal, no matter how much you do.
Cause: Check the state of the aposty that hits the canula to the skin.Look at if there is a clearance somewhere.Quite possibly it has taken off generally upwards, or to explain it better, the flange if it is stuck but the center does not.This means that in the center where the needle is, it has a clearance and between and between the tip of a small millimeter when moving.That is why that slight puncture hurts again.If you are also tall, even if you look like the stuck canula, the needle is more out than inside where it should be, so you probably do not enter where the insulin units that should be putting and thus go up your levels of sugar.
Solution.Change Canula.
2) You put on the area where you have the sensor.Unconsciously you do nothing but bring your hand to scratch you (care that sometimes I have come to scratch and start the sensor).And discover that there is a lot of difference between what the sensor and blood glucose indicates in more than 70% of the occasions.
Cause: First keep in mind if you are a person who sweats a lot or to ultimately carried out activities that have made you sweat "by drop".Well, these drops of sweat can reach the wet, soak up, the metal parts of the sensor (in the DG6) or in others I suppose that similar (as I commented on the SAT) that although they do not come to corrupt or oxidize those parts, ifIt affects that sweat with falses to the extent.
Solution.Change the sensor.
3) In the Free sensor, just put it, you get a few drops of blood through the central hole.That sensor does not mark as fine as others you have taken.
Cause: You have caught a venilla.The blood could reach contacts and that sensor may have the falsified measure.
Solution: Try to calibrate.Change the sensor.
And I leave it here for now not to lengthen anymore.
