Medtronic infusion sets. Dodgy lot?

Well this is annoying.

Over the BH weekend I had 2 different set failures, where immediately after the set change my levels just skyrocketed.

It’s just happened again.

And I’ve noticed that all 3 dodgy sets are from the same lot number.

Minimed Mio 30s
Lot No 6007651

I’m going to raise it with Medtronic.

If you have any from the same Lot, keep an eye on things.

Here’s this morning’s telltale reaction to breakfast!

It’s so unbelievably annoying when sets are dodgy or fail. I hate to see blood sugar shoot up like that when you’ve done everything right. It’s so depressing and frustrating. I hope you have a box of sets with a different number.

Yep! Straight back down again once the insulin actually delivered and absorbed properly 🙄 :rofl:

Oh no! Now I am picturing a pizza with baked beans as the tomato sauce with slices of sausage, rashers of bacon and an egg a la Florentine.
Topped with mozzarella, of course.

That really should be a thing!

Never mind a breakfast bap, mine’s a Full English Calzone 😛😛😛
 
So frustrating Mike. I am glad that you have found the cause of the problem. I am sure that Medtronic will replace but good to have the problem flagged on here.
