Getting my Omnipod Soon
In just a week or so I should be receiving my Omni-pod and am super excited about it! :) No more injections, c'mon now whoever doesn't have it should get up on it. Does anyone have any advice on the "do's and don'ts" of the Omni-pod? I'm a fresh consumer of it and am a little worried about how the cathider is inserted in your body. I understand that it automatically inserts once you program the Omni-pod, however, what does it feel like? Ugh! I'm a little hesitant as to how it will… Continue

Robin M said… - The CDE said pumping insulin was a lot easier. I did not think the saline was bad at all, but when I started insulin I noticed a difference. I think my spot was a little sore with th e saline also. I know you'll notice a difference when you start pumping the real thing. I love my numbers on the pod. They are so much better and we are still working on basal settings. ---I have only had one problem with a pod and it wasn't the pod but the site. I must have some scar tissue or something and was not getting any boluses. It seemed like the basal was being absorbed but not anything else.---Enjoy.

- Hey, I too pumped saline first in the Omnipod. I started Oct 10th. My CDE told me that pumping insulin is a lot more comfortable that saline. It wasn't an issue with me at the time because it did not hurt or anything. But now that I'm pumping H'log I can look back and see that there was some discomfort on the saline that I do not feel on insulin.
Hope things are going well. Enjoy the pod.

Susan said… - Hi Tiffany:
I work - part-time in Coconut Creek. The northern most part - just near Boca. I am very happy that I moved down here - it is working out very well for me. Where in NY did you live? I was born in Manhattan, grew up in Queens, moved back to the city as soon as I could, then got married and lived in Fort Lee, NJ for 20 years.
Came to Coral Springs because I have friends from Junior High who live here.
Tiffany - check out the Omnipod Users Board on here - it really is helpful.
And - I love the pod.
One of the things that is really good for me is - I am a nibbler - when taking shots - if I nibble a little piece of something - 1 sugar free cookie or a few nuts or something - it was not enough to bother with a shot - but with the pod - I can just give myself a little bit of insulin - like .20 - it is so easy to do and you couldn't take such a small amount with shots.
I never got a pump before because the thought of it skeeved me. This pod is really not so bad - OK it's not beautiful - but I had been putting cute stickers on mine - I have Koi fish and some that look like tatoos -
my friends think I'm nutz - but it looks prettier.
Have a great day - I'm here if you need someone to talk to.
Susan
