The pod failures I have experienced with my daughters pod was when the insulin was to cold.

I use the Accucheck carrying case to carry the Omnipod. It fits perfect and the case is smaller.

If my daughter has a pod failure and I didnt not bring any insulin with me, I suck the insulin out of the old pod and put it in the new pod. This has worked for me often. I usually keep extra pod in my car, in her bookbag and my purse.

i used to have the omni pod. The pods are the big problem. Its the company... My screen would crack for no reason and it happend like 3 times in a year. Finally the company told us we would have to start paying.

These things are sent to test us. The comments from MelissaB and Brad are up front and true. I have read about all the failiures with the Pod and with the Nav that M uses. I know now that the number of "unit failure" can be reduced by the user. By vigilant and always have a good supply of insulin and Pods, or sensors. I fly about every 2 weeks around europe and the US. When I get back I bin the lot. Start again. Its all about asking what you would do if you were taking a baby from a to b. You start again. The occulsions are and issue on long haul flights but no more than getting the flu.
