Samantha RIley said… I've had the omnipod since December 09.
The main thing I've really liked about it is of course - no tubing. It really is nice being able to move it around. That being said, when I wear form fitting clothes it looks like a small tumor. Thank goodness I'm in the medical profession and mostly wear scrubs. Because of its size (kind of like a square egg, if you wil) it gets knocked off easy depending on wear you have it and your day to day activity. You can't silence it or put it on vibrate. The last 8 hrs of pod life are annoying because it beeps a lot. I also feel like the insulin is retained more in the last 8 hrs bc my BG is always high. The pods have a lot of occlusions/errors as well.
My main reason for switching is the CGM - omni doesn't have anything similar. My last A1C was awful, so I need to monitor my BG better.
Samantha RIley said… I did get my minimed but my pump trainer called in sick so I'm waiting to reschedule. Did you want my feedback on omni?
