"I'm using an old cell phone case too. The case that came with the Medtronic 508 was fantastic; it protected everything but was lightweight. It was perfect. Hope someone out there in Medtronic-land is listening."

"Jamie, Thanks for your answers. I had no idea you had to stay near the meter and wait for the bolus to finish delivering. Kinda defeats the purpose...Also, did I understand correctly that you have to enter the bg manually into the pump? That kinda…"

Erin replied to Erin's discussion 'Other options for infusion sets?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users

Erin replied to Erin's discussion 'Other options for infusion sets?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users
"Thank you guys for your replies. The thought of manual insertion freaks me out (go figure-you'd think multiple injections and fingersticks every day for years would lessen my squeamishness, but no). Henry, your review was very helpful. I'm…"
