Hi been on it a bit longer now. Pdm works well, no connectivity issues. However I am constantly running high. The auto has cut down my basal a lot. I have increased my bolus amounts. So bow I am now close to 50/50 bolus to basal amounts. Still high. I have been told to not fiddle. So now this...

Egg on glut free toast. Glut free cornflakes, with a chopped up apple. I been type1 for 58yrs and celiac for 2. Glut free sausages are nicer than normal on glut free bread. I always weigh my food for carbs.

Hi I am now on the 5. I see your levels are 80% plus. So is mine just about. I was hoping it would be better. What levels would yours be in the daytime if you kept carbs down. I went carb free for most of the day and it still went above 10mmol. But bedtime it's much lower and steady.

Been absolutely spot on during bed time. But at about 8am it zooms up. This is my 4th pod. I went carb free for breakfast and it went up to about 12mmol. But it has to learn. Suppose if you think of it most people get up to go to work, many might drive. It's best to cover those than them run...

Hi Been on the 5 a week now and no longer as happy. During the night it is perfectly steady, although slightly high. But daytime is rubbish. I am now high all day. I think it is lowering my basal. I have been dsing increasing bolus amount by reducing carb ratio, but making little difference...

Cerial packs say the amount of carbs. If it say's a 25gram serving size is this the weight of cerial. Also is that assuming an amount of milk is included, or should I add say 7gram for the milk Thanks all

Yes had a few ups and downs lately but improving. Most times I find to take half my meal bolus 12 mins before. Then the other half about 2 mins before meal. Bed time it's steady all through the night. Had to increase bolus

I have top level of care, could not have been any better. But NHS staffing getting difficult.

Still loving it. Been 100% in range so far. But going digging on allotment soon. So using activity mode. Will see how it goes. Will take it easy and ready for glucose.

I was put on omni 5 yesterday. What a difference to the dash (which is good) FANTASTIC. I feel better, steadier. I could not be happier. Got to come off auto today though to change dexcom& transmitter.

Yes I am using the App that I have had for a few years

Even now it was just pushing me towards joining, instead of logging in. Also can't see anywhere to log out.

Samsung phone. Not been able to see anywhere to login. Ended up trying to start as a new user. As I used my old credentials, it said already a user with that email and name.

I am going on it tomorrow, currently on the dash which I love. When I first went on it I was having a lot of leaks, I was at the point of coming off. Then another user advised me to pinch up, but push down on the cannula end. I found if I did this Firmly, No leaks!!!

I have been frozen out of this forum why? Been trying to contribute many times, but gave up. No where to login. What's going on.....

Has this system been used yet. Is. Is it worth having. I am on g7 and pod dash now

You might find, speed of fiasco slows down gradually. I was on it for 3 months. It was quick at first but after 3 months was roughly same speed as others. Perhaps it was just me. But I read some others also slowed.

I find if I am lay down in bed and take a reading ( either cgm or bg) then stand up. The sugar level rises by about 1.5 within a 2 or 3 minutes. This is our bodies response to waking and standing. The body knows it is going to need more energy, so releases a small amount into the blood.

I had a lot of pod fails for 6 weeks but since I was advised by another podder, to pinch the area up, but push down on the clear cannula end when inserting cannula it's really good. It works for me anyway but might not for others. Like not having tube and good PDM. customer service is also good...

I have been podding for about 4months. But I had a lot of trouble for 6 weeks. Had several pod leaks and bleeds. Someone on a Facebook group suggested. When the pod is attached pinch up the surrounding area. Then insert cannula whilst also pushing the clear end down into skin slightly. Then...
