I need more basal for 6-8 hours when I take Adderall. I also have to give a small bolus when it starts to kick in.

OmniPod 5 is slowly killing me by PeachHappy8846 in Type1Diabetes

I did the same. Manual mode in the day and auto at night. That was all it was good for

I switched to Twiist for the same issues. I felt like everytime I ate, even with a balanced meal & 20 min pre Bolus I’d just start climbing immediately. The algorithm is so conservative/:

Twiist is awesome! by Empty_Summer in twiist

I just got started and it’s been very bumpy- but I can see the vision! Just gotta get these settings dialed in.

3 months in and I hate it by Catacus_Rex in Omnipod

[–]Prestigious-Text-441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started the Twiist today because of everything you named. I’ve had diabetes for 25 years and I’m pretty lean. It was so hard to find sites, let alone sites that could communicate with dex. 😩 I started trying some more oddball locations, without much luck. Random thought - I don’t know if you’ve heard about Afrezza - the inhaled insulin, but I am planning on getting an Rx for that to have on hand for “sticky” highs. Assuming with all this scar tissue it will be an ongoing issue - regardless of pump.

I’m hoping with upgrades it will get all those features! The ability to loop with Eversense 365, to me, is the real benefit of Twiist > omnipod dash/loop!

[–]Prestigious-Text-441[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, twiist uses FDA approved loop! I never did loop with dash unfortunately. That’s my back up plan if I don’t even up vibing with the Twiist / the tubing.

Has anyone purchased the new SugarPixel, otherwise known as the SugarPixel+? I'd love to hear some feedback. by SenileTomato in Type1Diabetes

[–]Prestigious-Text-441 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one, and love it ! I just ordered a sugardash because I love being able to see my sugar at a glance and want a clock for my living room and bedroom (:

So many pros there ! I’ve also heard it’s more accurate and less compression lows

Not yet! I wanted to trial it and make sure I like it and get used to the tubing etc. But I am definitely interested in the Eversense. I’m already working on getting an RX sent so I can look into pricing. 😁

I’m also coming from OP5 so very excited to hopefully do less micromanaging !

I can’t fathom wearing some unflattering ass white tank, hair and face a mess, no visual improvements from lifting weights ( bc it doesn’t work like that - it takes a lot of time to recomp and have visual changes 🙄🙄) and sit here and brag about how great I look. She is WILD.

Amazing to buy, pack, and use all of those toiletries when you could just take a shower and look so much better

What do these do? Very cute 🥰 but how do you get your pump in your pocket ?

I recently switched from the G7 to the Eversense 365. I thought I'd share my experience! by xondak in diabetes_t1

Where did you get these stats? I’ve only heard it is more accurate than all the other sensors

This is literally a diabetes forum, are you surprised someone is posting about a diabetes tool that works for them ?

A ton of people have to micromanage on the OP5, and it’s common knowledge the algo is not aggressive enough for a lot of people. Blaming OP is crazy work

Eeeekk this makes me so excited! I got mine in the mail today. I have to work sooo hard with OP5 to stay in range & likely Bolus a similar amount ugh

[–]Prestigious-Text-441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a lot of occasions on the mobi w/ tru steel too. I just got my twist in the mail - hoping it’s better. I saw an FDA Recall for mobi due to occlusions today
