Hi everyone, I’ve been using the Omnipod 5 for 3 years now. I always do my pod changes by filling the pod, then allowing the app to prime it, then when it’s ready to insert, I put it in my arm and go. This morning I forgot to prime it, I filled it up, deactivated my old one, then placed the new one on my arm in a different spot, and started it, I then realized it hadn’t primed yet, but I thought let’s see what it’ll do. It completed the priming then gave me the start option, which I did and it worked, and 8 hours plus 1 meal later, sugar level is controlled. This will be so convenient going forward, to know can place a newly filled pod on and not start the priming until needed.
