I got minimed 722 in purple, they also sent me some cute skins, the daisy one and hot pink leopard one. Today I ran kinda high all day, the educator is calling tonight, Im sure we will figure it out

WOW! A really NEW newbie!!! Congrats. Just keeping asking questions and never settle for a half answer. Therre's so much to learn. Make use of the diabetes nurse educator as much as you can reach her/him. But for now, read the books that come with the pump. What kind of pump did you get? What color?

Others have mentioned nifty patches. Are they available for the QuickSet on Medtronic Paradigm 722?

What pump are you wearing? It might help with what tips we give.

Congrats! That is very exciting. Just make sure to test your blood sugars frequently so that your diabetes educator can get the pump settings correct. Let me know if you need anything!
