[QUOTE="Dublindiabetic, post: 1698856, member: 47389"] Hi, I got my Medtronic 640g pump only yesterday. Doing the initiating period so only using saline at the moment and still injecting myself as i would have done previously. Already feel like the pump is not for me. It feels very bulky and is not comfortable on my belt. I also would want it to be discreet and it is noticeable when there. I saw some bands online but not sure if they are practical in real life. some had pouches wrapped around the leg or stomach but you would really need to find a bathroom to get at your pump to insert the BG and Carbs details. any advice would be great as feel bad that after waiting a year I am thinking about handing back the pump already and continuing with my pens.
