Yes an Omnipod or a pump with a remote is looking very attractive in hindsight. I picked the Vibe primarily for its CGM integration. But now I can't afford to run the CGM. And it will be at least 2 years, maybe 4, before I am eligible for another pump.The tubing was never for me and it might be too late now but have you considered an Omnipod?

I do sympathise hugely, there are so many times you want to be known as yourself rather than the diabetic but it only hits me when I'm a bit burnt out from the whole thing which I think affects most of us at some stage .
So the Spibelt is visible but not the pump itself?I was unsure of getting a pump due to the tubing on show issues. Anyway, been pumping for 4 months now and wear mine in a spi belt around my waist. This way it is not visible at all under my shirt and is above the waistband of my trousers. Maybe worth a try?
It's perfectly OK and thank you for the suggestion.I apologise Spiker for such a destructive suggestion for a serious problem
At the risk of destroying all my suits and never being able to carry loose change again, I am going to cut holes inside all the pockets of my suit trousers.
This is why I am thinking remote controlled pump...At the risk of destroying all my suits and never being able to carry loose change again, I am going to cut holes inside all the pockets of my suit trousers.
If you or your wife can not do it take suits to a dress maker and ask that button holes be put in an appropriate place so that you thread your pump through. Do remember to make sure the hole is big enough for the connector/cannula end to fit through thoughAt the risk of destroying all my suits and never being able to carry loose change again, I am going to cut holes inside all the pockets of my suit trousers.
