Daughter runs low after new pump
My daughter has been using the omnipod-5 since November of last year. She will occasionally go low after changing her pump. Last change her blood glucose was at 150 when we finished. Her blood sugar was good for about half an hour and then it dropped from around 130 which is her target, to 62 in about 10 minutes.
Today, we changed her pump and she was more stable (she had some protein after), and her blood sugar was higher. Then we had dinner. She had around 70 carbs (she had dessert too). We didn't bolus before, as we usually do, because her blood sugar was heading down while she was eating. So, she ate and her blood sugar started to rise but it didn't even hit her target. Then it started to go down again. We had to give her some quick carbs to get her to go up again. With the amount of carbs she had she should have had 1.4 units of insulin to cover. Instead we didn't bolus at all and she still was going low.
Has anyone experienced this?
