I am on the Dash and plan to stay
Having already switched from the Eros to the 5, six months ago, I selected “not using the Eros.” For those that are using the Eros, skip the Dash. After the few weeks of adapting to the new PDM, I have had really good results. The Omnipod is the best system for those of us who HATE having the long tubes hanging out and catching on everything. Be stealth!
I am on the Dash as well. I wanted Dexcom G7 more than Omnipod 5, so I switched to G7. I expect it won’t be long before G7 works with 5.
Recently switched to the dash with diy loop, so nice to just have to carry an iPhone and bolus from my watch
I am going to Tandem. Just need to use my supplies up before I start on the new system. I am not sure how I will adapt to being tubed again but I am hoping it helps with my lipoatrophy among other things.
I’m a DIY Loop guy so this was an easy switch for me. My insurance covers it and I am all set as the DASH actually integrates more easily with Loop (it removed the need to carry an extra device).
We can loop with dash
