I have finally been given the green light for a pump after 4 years of requesting. Have done the DAFNE course, know and use my carb ratios, and am all set to attend pump clinic next month.
I self fund a Dexcom G6, and have been offered either the Omnipod Dash or the Medtronic 640g, as the only options in my area, both of which sadly cannot open or close loop which would be my goal.
I think I am heading towards the Omnipod because it’s a tubeless system, but don’t know whether to hold out for a few more months for the Omnipod 5 which is rumoured to have a link to Dexcom CGM.
would any current pumpers have any advice they could share with some?
