My insulin usage has gone from over 100 units a day to three times this week – 7 units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you look at the Omnipod documentation, it’s only been approved for usage of 6 units a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes….<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For those of you who stumbled on this post, I was diagnosed in 2002, and was put on insulin shortly after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My heaviest weight is 320. I’m at 215.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This miracle has been accomplished by using Mounjaro. Between Mounjaro, my weight loss and my activity level, I don’t use as much insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I felt like I needed a plan but I couldn’t figure out how to ask for the plan through the portal. I also thought we need a conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’ve decided to keep using the Omnipod and see what happens between now and the next appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also decided to up my dose of Mounjaro when it needs to be refilled, since I have one pen and two boxes left. I’ll let you know what the Omnipod does when I get to less than 6 units.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
