JasonN replied to Jen's discussion 'New, smaller Omnipod arrived!' in the group OmniPod Users"I can't believe no one else has figured out what they are doing!!! I think they realized how much it was really going to cost them to just swap out everyones pdm, so they are waiting until enough warranties expire so that the get paid for the…"
JasonN replied to Sarah's discussion 'Pod Placement Suggestions?' in the group OmniPod Users"My favorite spot is the back of my arms. The only time it ever bothers me is when I walk to close to a door frame or occasionally snag it while playing around with my daughter. You never realize how close you are to things you walk past until you…"
JasonN replied to yumbittersugar's discussion 'Discrepancy between Dexcom and meter' in the group Dexcom Users"I agree with you completely Natalie. Just this week, without the Dex on, my morning BG was apparently off big time and caused me to take too much of a correction and I was low for several hours that morning."
JasonN replied to yumbittersugar's discussion 'Discrepancy between Dexcom and meter' in the group Dexcom Users"How many times are you calibrating each day. I find that the 2 that are required are not enough. I calibrate several times a day and it has been pretty accurate for me. But I have had a few at night that claim to be higher than actual BG. Are you…"
JasonN left a comment for Kelleigh"If it shoots up at around 3 1/2 hours then you just need to extend the bolus longer than that and possibly increase your bolus amount slightly."
"Thanks for the comment. Pizza is so tough. I need to figure out what to do around 3 1/2 hours AFTER eating. That's when the problem starts. I am much happier eating low carb; my numbers were excellent today. I eat mostly vegetables and…"
JasonN left a comment for Kelleigh"Pizza and mexican food were the worst two for me. I usually do the extended bolus with 55-60% up front and the rest over 3-4 hours. But it's different for everybody. I've been on the omnipod for about a year and a half and there were…"
JasonN replied to Jacob's mom's discussion 'So do you always change your pod when you see a bloody canula?' in the group OmniPod Users"You are doing a great job. I am just glad that it's me that I have to worry about and not my daughter. I can only imagine how hard it is having to worry about the everyday struggles and then constantly worry about a child's bg. The omnipod…"

JasonN replied to debdebdebby13's discussion 'Did I make a test strip mistake?' in the group OmniPod Users"Then you are ok either way. I have wasted a lot of strips verifying with all three control solutions because my supply company started sending me the new lite strips. The are identical strips with different labels on the box. Why they make two…"
JasonN replied to debdebdebby13's discussion 'Did I make a test strip mistake?' in the group OmniPod Users"Not if it's for the new freestyle lite strips. The new freestyle and freestyle lite strips are identical. I've compared both in several different meters and the results are always the same. Just make sure it's the new quick-wick ones…"
busymom replied to JasonN's discussion 'Numb hands!' in the group OmniPod Users"Hi Gary! I just wanted to say thank you for saying A1c of 7 is ok! I have kept my A1c's around 7 for quite a while now. It's under in the summer (6.8) and over in the winter (7.2) It is stressful to have lots of lows. Once I get to BG of…"
Erik replied to JasonN's discussion 'Numb hands!' in the group OmniPod Users"You may ask for testing for Rheumatoid Arthritis. I had carpal tunnel release surgery on both hands, then discovered that I have RA. This can affect feeling in the hands, and can be explored with blood tests. It's worth asking your doctor…"

Thanks for the comment. Pizza is so tough. I need to figure out what to do around 3 1/2 hours AFTER eating. That's when the problem starts. I am much happier eating low carb; my numbers were excellent today. I eat mostly vegetables and proteins. However, pizza is just one of those things in life I can't give. Like coffee and wine ! I am liking the omnipod. Anything I should know that the CDEs don't teach about omni?
