Hi all, So after a visit to the hospital to discuss pumps, I really like the idea of getting one. I have been invited to a manufacture talk (Medtronic and Accu Check), but naturally they are only going to talk about the positives as they want you to use their product. But I want to know the...

Will have a look on there now :)

That's great information thank you for the book suggestion, I will certainly look into it. The omnipod does have some positives from what I have read :)

Hi @azure Thanks for the message. I understand it is personal preference and will certainly ask lots of questions. To be honest I'm going to have to anyway as I'm really new to this. So many makes and models to choose from, I feel it can sometimes be overwhelming :) Thanks for your Help!

Hi @Snapsy That is exactly what they are like with me. They seem to praise the insight for the way it works, has been developed, uses cartridges and software. They even say that if they asked someone if they could return it or have it back the request would be declined. That is a very good...

Hey @Snapsy I might actually ask when I go in, I didn't think about asking for a try on/trial when I'm there. You have made a very good point about where you may and may not be able to put it on the disconnecting for certain things makes it seem very much less of doom and gloom when it comes...

It's always different when your left to your own devices, I know because I'm like it with my dance moves so hard to think on your feet sometimes. I'm on day 3 of my weights today and I'm starting to ache to must be doing it right.... or wrong, it's one or the other lol I think you should do...

Hi all, Tomorrow I have an appointment to discuss insulin pumps with my diabetes team at the hospital. I have had many discussions already with them but tomorrow is an opportunity to look at some and see if one I like the look of is available on the nhs. I do a lot of Lindy hop dancing and...
