tandem

Hi there I'm currently running the tandem / dexcom closed loop but thinking of switching to the Ypsomed Cam APS system which seems to have a more sophisticated algorithm. Downside is the Ap only works on android. Does anyone have any experience of this or have any intel regarding when the Ap...

Hi all, I’m new to the community but certainly not new to Diabetes - I have been diagnosed with Type 1 whilst still living in Brazil (my home country) back in 1997. I have been on insulin pump treatment (Tandem t:slim X2) and CGM (Dexcom G6) for about 2 years now. All via the NHS. My wife and I...

Hi guys First time posting here, I appreciate any input. I have been type 1 diabetic since 2015, been on an insulin pump since 2018 (medtronic 640g), now my warranty has expired and I am due an upgrade. I currently use novorapid in medtronic 640g pump with minimed mio advance cannulas and use...

I have finally be approved to get a pump and out of my options, I have narrowed it down to either the tandem t:slim or the omnipod dash. I like the idea of the omnipod as it's tubeless and I like that I can do my bolus doses remotely. My worry is that the pod itself is bulky though and I will...

Hi everyone! Long time reader, first time poster :) Hope you're all doing well! I have been diabetic for nearly 20 years, on a pump for 10 years, and I am (over)due my third pump update. My biggest problem since diagnosis is that I do not test nowhere near enough which means my control is not...

Hi all - I live in Tanzania, and we are taking my 7year old son home to start him up on a Tandem + Dexcom G6 system. We need to get it right as we go back ASAP after he gets the pump/sensors. He usually is in school/sports at 8 am – 4 pm, and that is my main concern. All advice on how to...

Hi all! Does anyone have experience with using the tandem T slim x2 at altitudes greater than 10k feet? I was told by them that it is not designed to work above that altitude and that it would give me an alarm and stop deliveries, but honestly, I am getting tired of all the cool stuff that I...

My current Accu Chek Spirit Combo is out of warranty and I’m looking to change. Any useful advice or experience with the T:slim pumps? Especially without the use of a CGM. I use a libre and am currently trying to get finding for a dexcom. But worse case I’d be using the T:slim solo. How is it...

Hi all! I recently moved to the US and I have to get a new pump (I now have a medtronic 640g from Argentina. Medtronic will not give me support for this pump). I have been doing some research and nailed it down to medtronic 670g or Tandem tslim x2 + Dexcom G6. So far this is what I have: - I...

For anyone who is interested (@Capt-Slog ?) Tandem have released some videos with instructions on how to use Control-IQ, their hybrid closed loop system. It will probably be a long time before we get this in the UK (starts January in the US) but still interesting.
