Re: Deltec Cozmo vs. Paradigm 522

Another PUMP question...narrowed down now..just need a bit more info.. I know ...I know................


Just wondering..for those of you who have worn each pump and switched from either brand.
What did you like better or worse about each pump?
The paradigm 522 is the new one on the market...has anyone tried this and do you know what features are different from the older paradigm pump.
Any info of what you liked and disliked in regards to these specific pumps only.. that would be great!!! Any info you wish to share is good too.

I don't think anyone on here has the 522 yet as it just came out and I don't even think is being delivered yet, you can order, but not receive. The 522 is just like the 515 from my understanding with the ability to add the CGMS on it at the grand cost of $1000 initually and then sesnors AT LEAST every 3 days at $35 each and a new transmitter at around $500 AT LEAST every year, all of which is currently not covered by insurance.
