[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 936881, member: 11028"] I'm a Omnipod user. Yes they are available on the NHS but it may not be option at your hospital so do check. The connection between the PDM and Pod is very good and you only need to be close to the PDM when your bolusing or setting a TBR, if your out of range the alarm on the PDM sounds and a message comes up on the screen to say it can't connect, but once your basal rates are set the Pod will deliver the basal without connecting to the PDM so you don't always need to have it close-by. The Pods are extremely comfortable to wear and its easy to forget your wearing it, I've been using the pump for the last 6 months and not had a Pod come unstuck, if anything they take some removing when you do a Pod change as the adhesive fixes like clue to the skin. Overall I love the pump and not had too many issues, the ones I did have were at the start of using the pump and much of it was done to user error (by my own admission). I must add that this is my first insulin pump and I have no experience of using other pumps like the Cellnovo. [/QUOTE]
