[QUOTE="kiwiian, post: 2298590, member: 166002"] I was given Omnipod i liked the idea of no tube ...but the pod is useless.with no built in meter it doesnt record hypos.If you are low theres no way you are going to sit there trying to input bloods on a disused phone .The pods do not stay on the needle is so short if you do any exercise at all the needle comes out as they have made the sticker on pod so small. I would rather go back to a tube system .You cannot do manual bolus on a pod either they pretend its great because its half the cost to nhs but you will waste so many pods by getting them wet or sweating.When i complained they tried to say it was an extra hot summer ? my phone has been replaced twice already because of programme faults which in 4 months shows how bad a system it is i dont know how others are saying its great it really isnt [/QUOTE]
