I had a major site issue three or four Omnipods ago. Fiasp, or the Omnipod, or treatments for a non-functional pancreas simply stopped working. I was injecting 3x the amount of Fiasp I normally do and barely managing to stay below 400.
I swapped my site to the back of my abdomen when I replaced the pod (I should not have waited for the expiration) and everything went back to, actually, better than normal. I even got the stinging sensation on a bolus!
I find this very worrying. I’m not sure they really tested it properly; I’ve been using it since Insulet got approval for use in an Omnipod and since my insurer said I had to use Novo products, but I find the behavior somewhat freaky.
My endo glommed the episode as a site issue, which is very possible. I had been constrained to use forward sites, pretty much my abdomen, as a result of a broken arm. All the same, I got really good results from the site change but now they seem to be getting less.
