[Diabetes-Talk] Need help with Dexcom right away

It's rare for me to be that high, and I didn't eat much yesterday, so, it
was weird. But I just started using a new insulin pump, and I think the
infusion set may have been wonky, so, I changed it and things came down
after that, grin.

Oh me I am pleased I am not the only one who has high numbers doing nothing.
I was scared this morning, and learning the new libre patch is exciting.
Glad all came down today.
