Hi all - I have been on the Omnipod Dash for a number of years and this has always been a problem but has got much worse recently.

I change in the morning before breakfast- give myself a 0.8 Bolus on my old pod - Then put a new pod on - bolus for breakfast as normal and add an extra unit and put a temporary basal rate on and still go high - over 20 within 1-2 hours. Then stay high for hours and then crash in the afternoon.

I don’t know what to do to manage this - I can’t change the time of day I change my pump due to lifestyle/ work. But it’s now becoming a real issue and giving me real anxiety.

Does anyone else have this or have any suggestions on how to manage?

Thanks
