Hi, appreciate this has probably been asked a lot before, but has anyone switched from the Omnipod 5 to Medtronic 780 that can tell me their experience? I’ve been on the Omnipod 5 for two years and I am getting so incredibly frustrated with it. I LOVE not having tubes, it suits my lifestyle so well, but my control has gotten worse and worse. Timmy HbA1C has always been around the 5.5-6.5 mark, but im now up at 7.5 and Dexcom is showing that I’m only 60% in range on a weekly basis. I’m having huge highs after eating and struggling with lows during and after exercise.
For a bit of context, I eat very healthily and exercise a lot (train for and run ultra marathons and long bike rides). Running is always hit and miss, but I’m finding that my control around exercise is worsening, no matter what I’m doing. I’m not sure whether anyone else has had an issue with the Omnipod 5, or whether it could be my insulin (novorapid). Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
