Gamzi- welcome aboard!!! So glad you joined! Youll love it here!!!

I just started on the omnipod about a month and a half ago and I have never noticed anything like you mentioned….

Two things I can think of though:

1) Did you switch pumps or is this your first pump? cuz usually when they start you out on the pump they give you a lower basal rate than you had before with the slow release insulin so it is possible that you just need to increase your basal to something closer to what it was beforehand…I had to do that a week or two after I began on the omni

2) another thing I can think of is that maybe you were out in the sun too much and your insulin went bad 🙁

How’s it going otherwise with the omni? are you happy with it?

Also, feel free to tell us a bit about yoursellf and read back a couple of pages so you can “meet” all of us 🙂
