just spoke with rep from insulet company...I am approved for the omnipod.my deductable is 200.00 from my insurance company..so I ordered my omnipod with a 3 month supply of pods and other accessories and my total is 502.00 ...they said every 3 months they wiil ship out the pods and it will cost me 165.00....A personal trainer will contact me within 3 business days to set up a training session.....so I'm a little nervous but also excited...wish me luck!!!thanks Patti

I recieved my omnipod and accessories.yay!!!!.On Monday 7-6-09. I am meeting with a trainer at my Dr.s office...so I am very excited...I know that there a lot of mixed reviews,but I have been on mdi's for 17 years ,and I started thinking about different types of therapies,to make a long story short..lol.I decided to see what kind of coverage I had from insurance for something like this...and from there it took on a life of its own....I will let you all know how things are going...wish me luck..thanks..I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend.Patti

Hi all,Today I went to my Doctor's appointment and he set up my pdm for the omnipod...It is now after 7pm and I just put on my first pod filled with 100u of insulin...and I am happy to report that all is well so far...I'm really thrilled!!! He programmed in the very basic settings,but the PDM seems like it will be easy to figure out[I hope}lol...talk to you soon,Patti
