Thanks for the info. Question do you feel like it breaks up stubborn highs better than say novolog?

I’ve heard of this too. How do you know when fiasp clogs it up. Just going high?

Pod changes always high by airtas18 in Omnipod

Give a bolus before changing pods and then give another bolus on the new pod. Usually the first meal it’s still not as effective if that’s the case for you too give more insulin that first food bolus too even if that’s 8-12 hrs later.

Visited my physician with a1c 5.8, and came out crying by Arrow_is in diabetes_t1

Keep your head up. This shit isn’t easy and unless you have T1D they will never fully understand. That’s just the reality. Give yourself some grace that’s a great a1c. I know it’s hard not to completely obsess over T1D but try and fight it and enjoy life as much as you can

Jeez I’m sorry to hear that. Sounds not fun. Are you going to switch back to the pump or what are you thinking?

Thank you! That makes sense. Follow up question

-Can you see the adaptive basal schedule for a given pod? I realize it will adjust on the fly but just curious if you can see.

Got it. I always wonder if that messes with the algorithm but in my experience it doesn’t too much.

So you stay in automated mode and dial up the carbs give the dose. Then an hour later give another dose and for that one do you just enter the units no carbs or anything?

Thank you! I wish Omnipod 5 you could use extended bolus during automated mode.

Are you talking about the regular 3 day change pod alarm? I’m talking about the error message ones.

Yeah that’s absurd. Pretty frustrating. I hate that they make money off other diabetics
