This has happened to me several times before but this one is particularly frustrating.
I am at work. Nothing has happened, nor have I eaten or drunk anything except water, for 3 hours.
I feel weird so I check my BG - 4.2. What does my pump say? 6.7!
Quite a difference!
I know it can take time for sensors to catch up but this is a massive discrepancy and all I have done this morning is sit at a desk typing!
And of course the pump doesn't accept the calibration so it doesn't believe my blood is dropping 🙄 15 minutes after the first calibration it finally accepts the second one.
Gahhh. I absolutely love my pump but this situation has happened a few times now and it's annoying...!
I'm going on the Ypsomed next week for the duration of my pregnancy. It will be interesting to see the difference.
