[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2083412"] [USER=509521]@lauralethal93[/USER] i thought you were asking if the magnets on rollercoasters would impact your pump. This may be an issue to be checked. However, for the length of a rollercoaster trip, you can unplug your pump. Just like you can unplug it when you go swimming or have a shower. If you remove your pump for 30 minutes or more, you can bolus the equivalent of a top up basal. If this is the way forward, a tube pump rather than a patch pump (e.g. Medtronic rather than OmniPod) would be better for rollercoasters. [/QUOTE]
