Hi I probably waited about 1 year to start on a pump. I think waiting times are a lot longer now. I started on Omnipod Dash in February 2021 and moved to Omnipod 5 in February this year . I agree technology when it works is of great benefit to managing diabetes.How long did it take to get accepted for the omni pod system please, i too am on the libre2+ sensor but want to get the omni pod to compliment it, the email i got back said it could take up to 5 years to get put on it. I'm even on a waiting list just for a general appointment to go and discuss it, i have been diabeteic for 16 years now i know what technology will be of benefit to lower my overall blood sugar levels. I pay a lot of various taxes and have always worked full time, never off work ill, all i am try to do is prevent complications and further costs on the NHS.
