nevada replied to MLH's discussion 'Omnipod Covers' in the group OmniPod Users"I bought a 'Garmin' case from Office Max for about $20. It is padded and roomy...large enough on the other side for an Iphone. "
Herman replied to MLH's discussion 'Omnipod Covers' in the group OmniPod Users"If I leave home for more than 1 hour, I take an extra Bag with me. The DS case fits in it and I can put i Insuline a Pod, and other stuff. Enough for a day.
The DS case is used because it is protective and small."
inkspray replied to MLH's discussion 'Omnipod Covers' in the group OmniPod Users"Interesting. We've been looking for alternatives for the PDM case as well. The DS Lite case looks useful. However, I've found Daniel usually needs to carry an extra backup pod and insulin with him - and the DS Lite doesn't seem to…"
Herman replied to MLH's discussion 'Omnipod Covers' in the group OmniPod Users"The new PDM has the same format. Only the colour is now black and of course the functionality has changed (improved). For storing the PDM I use now a Case for a Nintendo DS/NDS lite. (EBay less than $5.00) Available in different colours.
It gives…"
Biedronk replied to MLH's discussion 'Omnipod Covers' in the group OmniPod Users"Analeight, I would with for the new Omnipods. It is difficult to predict how different PDMs will be. I am quite sure we should know more withing a few months, then the case situation may change."
Natasha Bowlds replied to MLH's discussion 'Omnipod Covers' in the group OmniPod Users"I bought three to put in my son's stocking - so I don't know how well they work yet, but the pictures I've seen of people wearing them look cool!"

Omnipod Covers
Hello! I was wondering if there was any fun cases or covers for the PDM or Pod??? I've been looking around but I can't find anything. I have a pink PDM case from omnipod, but there's nothing really fun out there for a 14 year old girl. Thanks! -AnaleighSee More
MLH replied to MLH's discussion 'Keeping Omnipod adhered to skin' in the group OmniPod Users"Thanks again for your help. We've been putting the skin tac on the pod instead of her skin and it works like a charm, with less mess. Also using wider pieces of tape to hold it down. So far so good! We still change every two days as well.…"
Celeste replied to MLH's discussion 'Keeping Omnipod adhered to skin' in the group OmniPod Users"We do this too - it is the only tape that allows my daughter to get the three days out of the pods - I find in the winter when I can get lazy about it(less water and sweating) that she will get more kinks if we don't tape it too (I guess the…"
"I take off the paper expose the sticky side and take the tacky swab and wipe it on the pod.(the part thar sticks to my skin) When my fingers get sticky I place the pod on my body, since I been doing this a couple of months I have very few problems…"
"MLH your questions have probable been answered already in other places on this site but finding them is a challenge so I will add one more suggestion to your question.Look at the few pictures on my home page to see what I use. It has made pod wear…"
