Comment by Craig C on December 12, 2012 at 12:12pm Abby - They can be ordered from Roche via the Accu-Chek site but I'll bet you could order one from the supply number the same as your normal supplies.

Comment by Mike Ratrie on December 7, 2012 at 1:43pm Thanks Rob!
I did fill out the survey and made these similar points.
I do want to reiterate that the training was quite excellent and I got a lot out of interacting with both the trainer, CDE and fellow PWDs. Face time with real people is always good, eh?
Have a great one!
Comment by Rob Muller, Roche Diabetes Care on December 7, 2012 at 1:25pm As always, thanks for the feedback, Mike. I will make sure that info gets back to the product manager.
Have a good weekend!
Rob
Comment by Mike Ratrie on December 7, 2012 at 12:56pm Just completed the training session for the Combo. While I am pleased with the session and the trainer, I wonder at why it was necessary. It was pretty straightforward, especially for what is essentially an iteration of the Spirit.
Roche has made some progress on reducing the paper waste compared to the huge amount of packaging that came with the Spirit, but it could still be reduced by at least half.
The new meter-centered system will take some adjusting to, but I am looking forward to seeing if I can get in even better control with less variability with this system.

Comment by Jake on December 5, 2012 at 8:06am There is an agreement with Dexcom but it does not seem to be avalible in the current model of the Combo (at least in the US).. New bolus calculator is great though

Comment by Dee on December 5, 2012 at 12:16am Hi Shari, I'm in the UK and here they are not teaming up with Dexcom but are developing their very own CGM system to go with a new pump they are launching, hopefully available here in about 12 months time.
