Had a 2 week trial with the omnipod last month and it all made so much more sense. My results were 80% in target rather than 20% in target and my insulin requirements were 30% less. The ability to do things like deliver a bolus over an hour rather than 2 seconds  or reduce a basal by 20% for 2 hours of activity make the pumps a lot more like the pancreas and a lot more effective. With the pod I could leave it on during showers and hydrotherapy which is part of my job. Hoping I can now get funding and get off the pens for good.</blockquote>
