“No Delivery” on the Insulin Pump


Every diabetic on the insulin pump will one day run into the problem when it vibrates 3 times and says “no delivery.”  This generally happens after diabetics’ first bolus when they just changed their site.  “No delivery” happens in the middle of the insulin going into the body.  It is caused by back pressure in the pump.  There is no known way to prevent this.  When this happens the only thing one can do is change the insulin pump again to a different site.
