Do you use the CGM? XI've just gone onto the medtronic 640g and so far I love it. Was on the omnipod before x

Oh yes the only downside of the medtronic so far is the tubing but I'm getting used to that now, it hardly bothers me. Also my kit has got more in it now. The only thing I miss is the pdm presets xIm on a omnipod at the moment but have been offered the Medtronic 640,do you prefer it to the omnipod.
Thanks Emms
ThanksHi @CarysMia2711 - am very happy with the 640g, yes it does have tubing but it can be discretely hidden and I wear a pump belt so it's comfy for bed, sport etc, it's waterproof but I always remove for showering and swimming, it's easy to bolus and adjust basal settings for sport, sickness etc and set changes are pretty quick, you need to find a cannula set to suit you though and after using the mio which is a spring loaded set I've moved onto the sure t as was getting a reaction to the plastic set. I have t used any other pump though so cannot comment on others
Hi - I'd be really interested to know what made you decide to switch? I'm currently trying to decide whether to choose to move to the Omnipod system or to the medtronic 640g, from an animas Vibe as it is now out of warranty.

Hi I was diagnosed 18 months ago and have recently been offered a pump. I am stuck between the Aviva Insight and the Medtronic 640g. Does anyone have any recommendations or advice or has tried both and have a preference
