[Diabetes-Talk] Tandem slim X2 insulin pump

[Shawn Mayo]

Hi,

My diabetic educator just called me and wants me to meet with the rep for
the Tandem slim X2 insulin pump because she said it uses sounds for giving
boluses.  I know that there is not a great accessible pump currently as an
option, and I wonder if this is the one that has a touch screen an can't be
turned on in an accessible manner.  Does anyone know anything about this
one? I am just starting to look at pumps and educating the rep and my doctor
about the accessability problem. I told them about the Omni pod and that I
want to look at that one, too. I currently do not have a CGM, but will
probably be going to the Dexcom G6 when it comes out towards the end of the
month.

 

Thanks for any feedback.

Shawn
