I currently have an omipod insulin pump but am finding that i am limited to where i wear it. I am due an upgrade and have been offered the medtronic 780g, tandem tslim or stick with omnipod. I would want to go on closed loop system with whatever one i choose although that appears to be on hold at the moment in my area. Any advise/opinions on any of these pumps? Think i may take bad with tethered.

If you feel that you are limited to where you wear your Omnipod, perhaps ask other Omnipod users how they manage changing sites.

Hi I have been type 1 for 52 years and I am on the omnipod n been on it for around 5 years I use various sites arms, legs, side of tummy either side I do rotate which gives the previous site time to recover n heal I find this pump very easy I too have been offered the Medtronic 780 but I was on a tubed pump previously which I didn’t get on with having to take it off for swimming etc so this one I really prefer hope this helps
