Ok, have just started on my trial for the Omnipod – first couple of days and I immediately noticed the difference- improvement in levels which have been lower and more stable overall with just a few blips. One thing that has been great is no hypos since starting on it four days ago! That’s very good for me. I also love the convenience of it, the bolus calculator is a godsend – much cleverer than me on the maths and the way it takes into consideration the ‘insulin on board’ is great. Love the way I can bolus via the remote device while out and about and have much more flexibility in general…….Unfortunately I’m now heading into my demonic hormonal insulin resistant phase of the month so it’s all gone to pot today! 10-13 all day despite correction doses!….guess it’s going to take some time to work everything out for the different needs of the day/month.
The aim is to get my control really good or at least very much improved while on the pump to show it works for me and could maybe get some funding!
Keep you posted……
