[QUOTE="azure, post: 1302533, member: 39639"] [USER=274286]@asa35[/USER] If you have a Vibe you can currently get the Dexcom starter pack much cheaper, as you'd be a customer of theirs so qualify for this special offer. Check their site for details. Also, the sensors can be made to last longer than listed. [USER=352105]@GeminiJohn[/USER] and [USER=274286]@asa35[/USER] When you make your pros and cons list, also make a list of each pump's features, then highlight the ones that are important to,you. We're all individuals and have different priorities. Think about your daily life and what would be important to you. Yes, the Vibe screen looks more old-fashioned than the Medtronic but for me other factors outweighed that. As an example, I had the Insight which is newer and more modern - and I absolutely detested it! I gave it back. It was awful (to me). So don't be dazzled by the most modern if another pump would suit you better. I read and read and read, made my lists, and have never regretted my choice :) All my research and imagining paid dividends. It's not over the top. It's worth doing as your pump will be with you 24/7. [/QUOTE]
