Great thread Allison.

Regarding skin allergies to the POD (and/ or Dex adhesive). I updated a post about adhesive issues with CGM/pumps. I have very sensitive skin (particularly with adhesives). I’ve been following this routine for a year plus and, for me, I’ve only had 2 or 3 sites that have bothered me.
