My (b)(6) daughter, diagnosed at (b)(6) with type 1 diabetes, has been using insulet omnipod for four years.Though some isolated equipment problems sporadically, the recent failures of this omnipod, resulted in high blood sugars and ketoacidosis.Stress beyond belief, trouble in school, missed school, loss of sleep and inflicted illness which further increase blood sugars.Additional pod changes which are extremely painful and many, many tears.Ketoacidosis was treated with additional insulin which were painful boluses as well.Poor kid suffered and was almost hospitalized due to these product failures.Now i am advocating to obtain replacements for these pods in this lot.
