[IP] Re: Pump Suspended Itself! Annabella Lewis - insulin-pumpers-digest V11 #929
Annabella,
I had exactly the same thing happen to me last year! I panicked of course, not
knowing why it had done that, and I knew I hadn't. You are right on the spot
about having pressed your body up against your counter - because that is what I
had done. I had a new stove - where my body contacts the front dials more then
my older stove - in stirring up the pot <lol> on the stove - and then WTF - my
pump is telling me exactly what your's said - "No Delivery, Pump Suspended". It
never happened again, it was just a fluke, but going thru' my manual, I figured
out how it had happened.
I like you saying that your pump decided to take a break! :)

Subject: [IP] Pump Suspended Itself!
A strange thing happened yesterday. I was standing at the sink, doing the
washing up, when my pump (Animas 2020) beeped. Dried my hands & got it out of
it's waist-it
container, the screen said: No Delivery, Pump Suspended. What! I thought, I
checked the Alarm History, no alerts or alarms that I had missed, so I pressed
Resume & it
restarted. According to the history it was suspended for about 3 minutes, but I
didn't
suspend it & the manual says that message is the result of manual suspension. I
can only
think I must have pressed up against the sink & pressed the right sequence of
buttons, but
that would have to be: Any button to wake the pump up, OK to select main menu,
Down Arrow
once to highlight Suspend/Resume, OK button once to select, OK button again to
Suspend. I have kept a close eye on the pump since, but no further problems. I
think my
pump just decided it wanted a rest!
