I was working in the yard this weekend and was sweating to the point where my pod on my abdomin came very loose and I had to replace it. I had just put it on that morning. I guess it's just another thing to be aware of using the Omnipod!!

Comment by Cody Turner on May 29, 2012 at 2:53pm Check into the skin adhesive Mastisol. I know if you call MM they will send you a sample skin adhesive package which will have various things in it. As far as Omnipod i don't know. Mastisol is surgical strength skin adhesive and works great. I use it and my infusion sets don't come off even with showering and swimming with them on.
Not sweating ...but our Senior Black cat Dante caught up in the tubing , on my right arm , taped down with IV3000 tape ( I should have covered the infusion site with my T-shirt sleeve ...and did not ...such is life living with D ) ...we keep on learning !! ...I picked up Dante , cause I was ready to smooch with him !!
