"I did the same thing. With the demo pod, I put it on the back of my arm. It did not bother me at all, and now with the real pods they don't bother me either. You'll like it!"

Have a GREAT "ME" DAY :)"
Jeanine S replied to SandyG's discussion 'Time change on PDM....' in the group OmniPod Users"Yeah, and I suspended it and changed the time right before I went to bed. I forgot to resume, and it mustve been alarming me to resume it but I slept right through it. Woke up high!"
Jeanine S commented on Mathew's group 'OmniPod Users'"Annie, when that happens I just put a piece of bandaid over it"
Jeanine S posted a blog postWhat I Would Do
By the way, this is directly copied from the post on my blog at www.overnightbite.blogspot.comThis post is in response to the TuDiabetes question for the month of February. It's a bit overdue, but hey, it's still February!!! The question is: What would you do with a diabetes-free day?Well, seeing how I was only diagnosed about a year ago, I have a mind stocked up with memories about life without D. I remember all the crazy…See More
Jeanine S commented on Mathew's group 'OmniPod Users'"Oh and adding to my previous comment, I forgot to mention that it does this beep every time. Not the PDM, but the actual pod. It makes this strange beep when its done delivering a bolus too."
Jeanine S commented on Mathew's group 'OmniPod Users'"My most recent pod that I put on has been making an unusual sound. When it made the 2 beeps after filling the pod, it sounded a lot louder and more harsh and shrill. It was an unusual sound compared to the beep it usually does. I was worried that it…"
Jeanine S replied to Larry D's discussion 'One Touch In New PDM' in the group OmniPod Users"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! This made me sad. I love the Freestyle!! But perhaps the new PDM will be integrated with OneTouch's new strips that allegedly require less blood then their ultra strips. but still... NOOOOOOOOOO!"
Jeanine S commented on Lara's blog post 'Diabetic Barbie--I Don't Get It'"The Barbie with cancer would probably sell. If you think about it, a lot of things that you see in stores have a pink ribbon on it and say that a portion of all proceeds go towards one cancer organization or another. These things are popular. People…"
Jeanine S replied to Erik's discussion 'Video: Las Vegas Police Beat Up Man with Low BG (explicit language)' in the group OmniPod Users"This is extremely aggravating. I can't believe how badly that man was treated."
Jeanine S replied to SandyG's discussion 'Do I have to stay in PDM range while bolusing?' in the group OmniPod Users"Only until you hear the beeps"
Jeanine S replied to Jim Allison's discussion 'When your cured'"I'd probably keep checking my bloods just because I'd be nervous that it wasn't really true."
Jeanine S commented on Mathew's group 'OmniPod Users'"A rep I spoke to said the new pods are expected to be fda approved in a few months and that they had already begun manufacturing them"
