Hi,
I'm just looking to meet new people with type 1 who use an omnipod pump.
I've had diabetes for nearly 9 years now, and I'm 20 years old. I am at university in my third year, and am 2 hrs away from home- have to be pretty independent.
I used an accuchek aviva combo pump for 5 years not long after diagnosis. Then I went back onto MDI because of cosmetic reasons- not liking the pump on me.
A couple of weeks ago I got set up on an omnipod pump at my home hospital, I think it's great so far.. I'm just waiting to see the blood glucose benefits, I have been so high the past couple of days. I don't know what's going on... I'm really hoping it gets better soon.
Anyone using an omnipod, I hope we can chat and learn from each other x
