I look forward to hearing from you again soon.
During my research I did get to try two pods and I borrowed a MiniMed pump (with tubing) and I wore it for three days. That was the clincher for me. I just could not get comfortable with the tube being attached, at least not after comparing it to wearing the pods.
Welcome to the TuDiabetes family, Karen.
Please help us spread the word about the community: invite friends, family and others who can benefit from becoming a member.
Take care,
Welcome to the forum. Nice to see more "podders" showing up.
I have been approved for the OmniPod and I expect delivery on Monday. Hope to be up and running soon after.
