At the end of July, I got a letter in the mail about a recall from my pump manufacturer of all of the infusion sets I have been using.
The issue was when there was rapid elevation change and the resulting change in air pressure would cause a malfunction in the vent of the infusion set. WHAT?!?

You mean Ragnar wasn't all my fault??!!??--Remember my Ragnar Relay post where I was having huge problems with my sugar levels while I was running that 188 mile relay race? Yes! It wasn't all my fault...

I didn't even know that the infusion sets had to have vents and hadn't even thought about how exactly my pump works. I guess that is another example of using technology that I have no idea how it works but I just know it does and there is someone out there smarter than me who thought of all this--amazing to say the least.

So apparently, when there was a change in air pressure the infusion set would malfunction and I would get more insulin than I input into the pump or I would get less insulin than I input--kinda sounds like I might just want to rethink the whole pump vs. multiple shot daily regimen because I think that would never happen with a shot.
