Hi!
I get married in November and I’m using the Medtronic 780G, and I have no clue how best to wear it for my wedding day
I’d like to not have to worry about it falling but also be able to access it through the day
Anyone got any recommendations?
Thanks!
Hi everyone,
I am due a pump upgrade and my nurse wants to put me forward for a hybrid closed-loop system. I am 90% sure I want to go with the Ypsomed pump with CamAPS FX for my next pump.
The funding for this would include:
- the insulin pump
- the consumables e.g. infusion sets
- the CamAPS...
Hi,
I was wondering how long it would take to get an insulin pump privately. I was planning on taking this route anyway due to many reasons and am aware it is expensive, but I have saved up money to be able to buy one and can maintain the costs.
I just received a phone call from my pharmacy...
Hello, has anyone else had issues with the medtrum nano patch pump? I moved on to it last summer but have since been having loads of issues with "patch errors". I rarely get the point I change it because it's ran out. 95% of the time it fails and needs changed. This problem keeps happening even...
Hi all
My pump is due for renewal imminently and I’m stuck as to what to get!
I have ongoing Dexcom G6 funding from my trust and the choice of omnipod, ypsopump and Medtrum.

I went and chose my pump last Tuesday (29th). I went with the Tandem T-Slim as it was better for my visual impairment and easier for me to use.

Hello all,
Hope you're well!
First of all, appreciate how many threads there are on this already and the wealth of info available.
However, starting a new thread with the hope I might get some advice on the options I have and from people that may have been in the same boat.
To set the scene...
Hello,
I have pushed my healthcare team to consider a insulin pump for myself as I think it would help with my control (so did the consultant at another hospital who gave a secondary opinion). My blood sugars average 10 but range between 8 and 14 on a normal day which my current hospital team...
I’ve been working with my diabetes nurse to bring my hbA1c down further and she often mentions switching to an insulin pump. My husband and I have been discussing having a child recently and I know that I have to bring my levels down further to reduce risks during pregnancy. My blood levels are...
Hi all,
I've been diagnosed type 1 for 10 and a half months now and im thinking about getting a pump. I have a couple of reservations that come in the form of my 20 month old and 7 week old.

Hi all,
I'm a T1 Diabetic that plays rugby whilst wearing the Omnipod and Freestyle Libre sensor. I've spent the last 3 years trying to find the best way to keep my pump attached to me whilst I play rugby.
Does anybody else have a similar issue? And what do you do to secure it? I'm currently...
Hi all,
I'm in the process of choosing a new insulin pump and I'm strongly considering the Ypsopump. Does anyone use this and can provide a review? I'm currently on a Medtronic pump. I like Medtronic, but I was attracted to the smaller size of the Ypsopump.
Thanks!
