Insulin Pumps

advertisement
Question from Phoenix, Arizona, USA:

I am very rowdy at school and I tend to jump around lot. My friends and I jump on each others’ backs and just play around. But, I’m getting a pump soon, so I have a problem. How do I keep my cord from getting ripped off, but still mess around and have fun at the same time?

Answer:

From: DTeam Staff

Maybe you should look into the OmniPod, which has no tubing.

Additional comments from Dr. Larry Deeb:

You should be able to tuck in virtually all of the tubing.
