screamers and thinking you are crazy!
So I had my first screamer today, and really couldn`t figure out where the sound was coming from.
I had to do a pod change and my pod was on my leg and so i decided to put the new one on and then go and change it in the bathroom.( really I dont think my co-workers want to see me with my pants down) only I got distracted and forgot it was there. so alllllll afternoon I listened to it scream and kept checking my PDM, putting my ear to my new pod and going "where in the world is that sound coming from"
I only figred it out 5 hours later! go me! lol
anyway I couldn`t get it to stop screaming so I stuffed it in my freeezer for now.
anyone else have a story like this so I don`t feel like a complete idiot?

My first Pod (tryout with saltywater) was a screemer when filling it. Statistically I was in de clear for a long time. But the second one did not gave two beeps. I was still convident to start using the Omnipod. And now after one year I started the 2e generation. The last 1st generation Pod started screaming after I took it of. So a good finisch. I used 126 pod's and had 16 replaced bij Omnipod. (4 screamers) I stop them with a paperclip or take the batteries out.
The first 2nd generation gave a oclussion after 2 hours.
But I stll love it. Great pump system. Nice bloodsugars. -
