I have never used any pump and I am just now starting to need mealtime insulin. I have read lots of your posts and they have helped me make my decision to go with the Omnipod. I am getting to new smaller pod in the next few days. I am currently wearing one just to get accustomed to it and it seems to be small and easy to get used to. Thank you to everyone for your post and I look forward to contributing to others in the future!
Good luck with going on the pod. It might take you a little while to get used to all the different settings etc but stick with it and you’ll soon start to see the benefits.
I’ve been on the pod for nearly 6 months now and it really is great!
And if you do encounter any problems there’s plenty of people on here that would be only too willing to offer help and advice.
Yay! I love my Barney. Barnacle. Pod. Hope you do, too! I'm really looking forward to the baby-sized ones. Can you tell me whether the smaller ones require less than 85 units of insulin??
Thanks loads and welcome!!
If you are just starting on mealtime insulin ,make sure you are very comfortable with carb counting before starting on any pump.
