sure you can ask me but I don't know a lot about the pump yet. but I have had diabetes for 25 years so that I know something about! :) I have the same pump as you but the 523 and I fought going on a tubed pump for years and after one week feel silly. It is very easy and no big deal. I watched all the videos on youtube as well.

and Thank You ( and your family) for your service to this country!
