RE: [IP] question for Cozmo users
I made the switch to Minimed in April because I had already been through
11 Cozmo pumps in 1 1/2 years. I really lost faith in them and was
concerned about warranty issues.
I chose MM because of the 300 unit reservoir. I miss a few feature of
my Cozmo but am very pleased that I've had a reliable pump now for 8
months. I recently started on the CGMS and that, for me, makes the
features I miss from the Cozmo a non-issue
I use a lot of insulin (90 units TDD) and was concerned about the fast
bolus on Animas and also the smaller reservoir. I do wish MM had that
color screen. Watertight is not an issue for me since I go low at the
pool all the time anyway. But I wish I could get the disconnect feature
of the Cozmo back.
I viewed it that I was going to have to switch pumps anyway so I might
as well "test out" another company without getting insurance involved
figuring if I wasn't happy then I would review my choices again when my
warranty was actually up.
So far, I'm staying with MM.

Subject: [IP] question for Cozmo users
I actually have another year and a half left on my warranty, but since I
noticed this offer from Accu-check I have been looking into pumps a
little,
and I really don't think I want to wait until the last minute anyway.
Is
there anyone on the list who has/had a Cozmo that has already switched
to or
chosen another pump? I really love the Cozmoe so I'm wondering if there
is
another one out there that is more like it than the others. It seems
like
every time I find one that has a feature my Cozmo has, there's something
missing that I really want. I especially love the freestyle meter that
communicates with the pump, and I don't have to carry around a meter
anymore. And I love how customizable it is, and I love the meals
feature,
and I really want one that is watertight... the list goes on and on.
Anyway
I would love to hear from you, on list or off. Thanks!
