Accu-Check Combo (Roche) anybody on this? I will be in 16 days!!!

[Steff]

I love the name Horace, hopefully Poppy and Horace can meet one day 🙂 hehehe!!!

At first i tried putting poppy in the middle of my bra (sorry boys for the bra speak haha) but it wasn't comfortable, i put it on the outer side of the pad under my arm...re sizes i have managed to just wear my bras on the loosest fastening on the back and they have been fine, just see how it is for you I guess. You can get all sorts of pouches and pockets though, just need to find what works for you..might make an interesting thread in here actually i.e. where do you wear your pump?????

DO IT DO IT

My accu chek combo arrived yesterday, being started with saline on 11th feb, insulin on 15th would love to know how you're getting on. Still have concerns about where to wear it especially at night. Any tips for the first week?

I went on to the Accu ChekCombo in October last year - absolutely brilliant as far as I am concerned!! I thought that DAFNE changed my life but nowhere near as much as the pump. A real life-changer.
I don't know any other pumps from a first hand point of view but I'm really pleased with Accu Chek and especially with the bluetooth connection. Just makes life so convenient.

Good luck with it - I'm sure you'll love it.🙂

Hi Bex, just to let you know that this is a 'resurrected' thread - Shelley got her pump last December! Someone posted a reply, not realising it was an old thread and others have followed. Shelley could probably give you a few pointers though! 🙂

p.s. Good luck with the pump! I will be following your blog!
