Good morning I am an Omnipod 5 and Libre 2+ user. I empathise with your sleepless night. I have experienced similar issues and contacted Omnipod. I was told that although you can turn alarms off they will still go off if your sensor and pdm senses you are low. They said it was a safety measure...

I have been on Omeprazole for some time. I was switched to this when ranitidine was no longer available. No issues with it at all.

I would recommend Cosyfeet for socks and shoes

Hi Hope this is of some help. I was a dexcom one user then moved Libre 2+. typeonestyle.com seems to do patches which they say fit with Dexcom 7 and Dexcom One+ The other one which might work is Not just a patch x patches

Hi BRW I am in a similar position to yourself. I have been using Omnipod 5 and Libre 2+ for a couple of months and frequently get woken because of this. For me the issues arises mainly due to problems with line of sight. The only way I can maintain line of sight is having both the sensor and...

I had to take my Libre and pod off for the last scan I had

My understanding it is now available. Hoping I am correct

Thanks for your reply. Interesting thread as you say There was a recent update for Omnipod 5 which means it now links with dexcom 7. Being able to use Dexcom would mean more flexibility in placement of your sensor and pod Thanks again

Thanks for your reply. Maybe Libre will get approved for use on other areas although they do seem to take their time over making any changes Following the latest upgrade on Omnipod 5 it will now link with Dexcom 7 so perhaps changes are afoot Thanks again

Thankyou for your reply. My arms are getting quite sore. Maybe come time that will improve. I will try your suggest ion on positioning to see if that helps It is not very often that I have to change my pods before the 3 days are up. I changed my pod and sensor this morning. It felt really...

I have been using Omnipod 5 and Libre 2+ Closed for several months now and am having real issues maintaining Line of sight unless I place both the pod and sensor on my arm. My arms are beginning to suffer with having both pod and sensor on one side for 15 days I have tried my tummy, leg and my...

Hi emshee1 Like you I prefer dexcom. It can be located it in more places. My arms are beginning to suffer

Hi emshee1 I also use Libre 2+ and Omnipod 5 and have experienced similar problems. I have found that I get best connection when I have both the pod and sensor on my arm. I have tried the location you have for the pod and connection can be patchy. Hope things go ok

Hi emshee1 I am sure things will go okay as you are already used to using Omnipod 5 & closed loop. I have found ensuring line of sight between the pod & sensor quite challenging. There are a couple of times when I was I sure I had line of sight but the issues I encountered made it apparent I...

Hi emshee1 I have been using the Omnipod 5 and Libre 2 + for about a month. You only need the Omnipod controller. You do not need the Libre app on your phone. Hope that things go okay with the change.

Hi I have been using Libre 2+ for 2/3 months and have recently moved to Omnipod 5 Closed loop. I find it consistently reads between 1 - 2 mmol lower than a finger prick. Hence it alarms with supposed lows but in reality I am not. For example libre alarmed at 05.00 this morning saying 3.5 when...

I currently use Freestyle Libre 2+ along with Omnipod 5 closed loop. I have found it reads consistently lower at least 1mmol sometimes more. I have also found towards the end of 15 days the sensor tends to come loose. I use skin tac wipes when I change the sensor, which has helped
