@doonbug_: Fashion tip nobody asked for: move your pump site to your arm and suddenly your jeans fit betterโฆor its all in my head ๐ Sometimes itโs the little adjustments that make life with a pump a bit more comfortable Whoโs got a pump hack to share? ๐๐ #insulinpump #type1diabetes #insulindependent #t1d #insulin
I keep my first site on for a day just in case my new one fails while Iโm working!

Wait. Wait! So... if my previous infusion site is still going strong I could potentially just not remove it, apply the second and have OPTIONS!? ๐ I'm doing this from now on. Thank you! ๐๐ฉต

question, have you ever had a omnipod? if you have do you prefer this pump more? and why? my boyfriend struggles with the omnipods sometimes and we feel like he's definitely wasting a lot of insulin that way

i always insert my new tube into the old infusion set for a good 12 hrs, for some reason i think the trauma of the inserter makes the tissues at my new site swell and stops the insulin getting through. nod had any stubborn changeover highs since ive started doing it this way.

I feel like i'd rip my tandem out of my arm?!? I rip my dexcoms out in that same spot, and imo, pump sites are more painful... so I'm scared!
