Who made this video, and where did they get their information? Since when did an insulin pump measure glucose? The CGMS does, but it still requires the patient to manually check their BSL with a glucometer. I've never heard of, or used, my upper arm or thigh to test, only my forearm or... yes... fingertips. A good tip is to use the SIDE of your fingertip, NOT the pad! This will save some pain! This video is so wrong, I can't believe it hasn't been flagged. Don't believe what this video says!

Minimed may be (in your opinion only) the worst pump, but they sure do sell the crap out of them dont they? Money talks and bull**** walks. Ive not got any complaints on my 2 that I have. I had more issues with the Animas overall than the MM but thats just my opinion. You know what they say about those 'ol opinions dont you......?

MINIMED IS THE WORST PUMP ON THE MARKET. i used it for three years b4 switching to animas for 9 days that was crap but better than minimed then said wait why the hell do i want a pump with tubing so i switched to the best pump on the market THE OMNIPOD view my videos if you are diabetic and want to live a normal life

I once signed to get the glucowatch.

Years later... nothing.

Atleast i got the insulin pump now, but not MiniMed.

Deltec Cozmo... and use the CozMonitor.

My finger tips have turned sensitive [sp?].
