I've been EP for 5 months and I think my purely yours is totally shot 
I have been pumping for 10 min and have less than an oz on each side. Usually get at least 3. Ugh.
Also I think I don't let down to the pump anymore. Can your body become less responsive to the pump as your supply starts to dwindle ? We just started to supplement and this is frustrating me to the point where I think I'm just done !

Five months of EP is awesome! I think my purely yours isn't working correctly either though.

@coacheswife123: oh no, I'm so sorry! I'm not familiar with that pump so I have no good advice

@coacheswife123: me too! I can't find my cord and it's going through batteries so quickly now.

@swedishfish: ugh !!! I can't decide if the problem is the pump or if my supply is just totally going away.

@coacheswife123: yeah, I think my supply is diminishing but the problem is compounded by the pump issues?

@swedishfish: I'm just so over it at this point and LO is doing fine on formula (so far!). I think I may start actively weaning of the pump starting tomorrow !

@coacheswife123: Did you check the membranes? I hear that's a frequent source of problems, at least on Medelas, but I assume it's the same.
However, if you are just feeling done with EPing, go ahead and wean! It would just suck for a weak pump to push you into it if you aren't ready.
