Re: [IPk] Refill immediately please...
Hi John
Glad I'm not the only one who forgets important things like refilling the
pump. The night before last I too saw it was getting lowish though the low
message had not appeared. What was left disappeared quicker than I expected
and although I did see one lo message it ran out when I bolused and I didn't
get an alarm. It was some time later when I realised it had run out but I
was only 13.6 and couldn't think why I had gone up. I forgot about the
alarm I should have heard until you mentioned it. I haven't done this
before but I do keep forgetting to do things when I get distracted.
