Today, I woke up and this omni 5 sent me from 6.5 to 10.5 by still be in bed and just browsing my phone. It's supposed to stop this but it doesn't. So I got up after an hour..Still highish, had 30carb breakfast, I pre dosed by 15mins. Still levels went up. That has been me all day. ****, I have had enough. I now find I have to pre bolus by 30mins to be much use. I even went up to 15.8. Also turned to manual for a long time with + 90% basal. Been like it a lot today. Including pod change. Only thing that started it to come down was a manual 1 1/2 units of insulin. I hate this. What a life we live sometimes. Not fair.
 
I dont know enough about type 1 as I am a type 2, however I did not want to read and run without an emoji hug and hope that someone with more knowledge of type1 will be able to give words of encouragement and kindness. XXX
 
Many thanks, but I have been type1 for 60rs and usually quite good. But sometimes it can go completely haywire and difficult. Trouble is also my DSN is only part time and reduced to 2 day's and not very helpful. Even when I get lucky to talk to her the blame try to fall on me. When in fact I know its this omnipod 5 changing from being perfect to terrible, which this system can.
But thanks for your concern.
