diabfighter replied to SandyG's discussion 'Time change on PDM....' in the group OmniPod Users"Wouldn't it resume automatically after the set time? I did suspend for 30 min before time change and forgot to resume it. The Pod made a beep after 30 min and resumed delivery. No big deal, but I wish there is a 10 or 15 min suspend interval."
diabfighter replied to Putertech's discussion 'Frustrated....' in the group OmniPod Users"Hang in there! Pod failures can be very frustrating...but when it starts working again, it is a joyful thing compared to tubed pumps and MDI. Try a more safer place where you have the least chance of knocking it off. Also the depth of cannula…"
diabfighter replied to IBelieve's discussion 'Appealing Coverage of Freestyle strips w United Helath Care / Medco' in the group OmniPod Users"I experienced the same issue last year. When I started on Omnipod, UHC covered it for 3 months to be refilled at the retail pharmacy. Later they stopped covering it and I went through the appeals process to have it covered. The doctor sent something…"
diabfighter replied to Larry D's discussion 'One Touch In New PDM' in the group OmniPod Users"I like freestyle but my insurance stopped covering it. Recently started using One Touch and looking forward for the new PDM. I agree...One Touch uses too much blood and I hate it for that."
diabfighter replied to FHS's discussion 'HMB anybody?' in the group T1DM Powerlifting, Bodybuilding and High Intensity Training"I am not using it but am interested in knowing more about it. I am trying to gain mass since I went on Omnipod 7 months back. I was very skinny and in the 6 months I put on like 30 lbs (mostly lean mass). I take glutamine, creatine and BCAA on my…"
diabfighter replied to Jgos's discussion 'Knocking the Pod and it shutting down ?' in the group OmniPod Users"Happened to me once about 4 months back. Was trying to wear my seat belt when the latch touched (just barely touched) the pod...the next thing I heard was that long noise. At that time I taught it might have failed due to some static. Still a puzzle."

T1DM Powerlifting, Bodybuilding and High Intensity Training
An open forum to discuss nutrition, routines and how to work with type 1 to fulfill your potential. Exercise routines and how to dose with insulin both with pump and MDI to avoid acute and latent-onset hypoglycaemia. Picture is me after a cut.

diabfighter replied to ChrisChris's discussion 'Coupon for Freestyle Strips' in the group OmniPod Users"I've been using it for the last 2 months and I think you can also get free meters as part of the Promise program."
diabfighter replied to JIMMER's discussion 'Omnipod vs Ping' in the group OmniPod Users"I am T1 for the last 5 years and a month back I switched to Omnipod after getting tired of multiple levemir and novolog injections. I did meet with reps from Minimed, Animas and Omnipod and also wore demo units for few days before deciding to go…"
