[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 810424, member: 11028"] Hi Savannah, I'm using the Omnipod pump and so far so good, but I'm new to pumping insulin so have no experience of using other insulin pumps like the Insight. I really like the Omnipod, the reason why I went for this pump was because it was tubeless, the Pods are really small and I don't have any issues wearing it as I'm not body conscious so don't really care if its on show or protrudes through clothing. You do need to carry a spare Pod but the syringe is inside the packaging with the Pod, the PDM case supplied is large enough to carry a spare Pod and as the PDM double up as a bg meter there's not as much supplies to carry around as you may think, plus you can purchase little syringes called mylife Daily Dose which come in handy should the Pod fail and you need to administer insulin fast. As for the Pod coming unstuck, there's no fear of that as you may find out if you ever come to change one, they stick hard & fast and stick even more the longer they are worn on the body. Hope you get a few more replies, especially from those who use the Insight pump. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
