This group is dedicated to giving OmniPod users a place to discuss and share our experiences so that we may grow and help each other "make diabetes a smaller part of our lives."
Please note: the exchange, sale or giveaway of items between members that require a prescription from a licensed practitioner, including insulin pumps and pump supplies, is not allowed on TuDiabetes.
We encourage you to donate supplies to non-profits such as the Charles Ray III Diabetes Association and Insulin for Life, which accept insulin pumps and pump supplies (as well as other diabetes-related prescription items).
You can also approach your physician's office or local medical groups to discuss donating them to those in need of assistance in your area.

Comment by MattVT on January 14, 2013 at 5:42pm anybody have the new pods yet?
Comment by Mishi on January 13, 2013 at 9:23pm Just like to say hello,I using the OmniPod insulin patch pump and have been using it for a while.
Comment by Hockey Mom on January 11, 2013 at 1:00pm My son had the same type rash underneath the Pod area. He could barely stand to have it on the same site for 2 days. We now use the Bard Barrier wipes for every Pod change and discontinued the Hibistat which is an antiseptic wipe which contains alcohol and was very drying. We started Hibistat because in the first month he got a staph infection under the Pod. The Bards has seemed to help a lot and he likes them better than a similar product by Allcare.
Comment by TuDiabetes Administration on January 11, 2013 at 11:23am Just as a reminder with the pending second generation pods and new PDMs hitting the US market in the coming months--it is NOT okay to post about pods or PDMs for sale on this site. It is a violation of the Terms of Use because it is a prescription device.
We encourage you to donate supplies to non-profits such as the Charles Ray III Diabetes Association (http://www.cr3diabetes.org), which accepts unexpired glucometer and insulin pump supplies, or alternatively you may talk to your physician's office or other local medical group to discuss donating them to those in need of assistance.
Thank you all for kindly refraining from this activity.
