    New to omnipod 5

    That is interesting about changing to fiasp insulin because I find it stings with lyumjev when the insulin is being delivered. I will ask my endo next visit. I am waiting for omnipod 5 coming to Belgium

    Type 1 Fiasp or Lyumjev insulin

    I am currently on dash omnipod waiting for omnipod 5 to be released. I am currently on lyumjev insulin but I keep getting a lot of high blood sugars, it seems to me it is not rapid acting and wanted to change to fiasp, would be grateful of any opinions and experiences with this type of insulin...

    Rising sugars on pump changeover

    I have this problem on changing pod and end up taking 5 extra units to try and solve the problem but end up with hypos later in the day. Does dash omnipod advise anyone? I will remember to take a bolus from old pod before I change it in future

    STV News Article - omnipod

    I thought the pod only had 3 days supply of insulin I have to change mine every 3 days and surely this poor guy was monitoring his blood glucose it must have dropped considerably while he was asleep. You never know if this technology malfunctions a bit scary

    Injections to Insulin Pump?

    I am very new just got a meditronic one today the tutor gave me a play one with water insulin to get used to it. I have lots of questions to ask him I hope I get the hang of it having a canula attached to your body 24/7. How is it sleeping with it I am afraid it will come out.
