Frequently Asked Questions

What do I do with my pump when I go to bed?

Your pump will "take care of itself". It may be placed in a pocket or clipped to a waistband. It can even be left laying beside you on the bed (unless you sleep with pets which might chew on the tubing).

But what about during those "intimate" times?

If you are using an infusion set with a quick-disconnect feature, you can temporarily disconnect from your pump (one hour maximum recommended). If you are using a "regular" type set, just leave it laying on the bed or clip it to something you may be wearing.

I am an active person in sports. Will a pump interfere with my lifestyle?

The pump is about the size of a deck of cards and is contained within an impact resistant case. The pump can be worn under your clothes or in a pocket during sports. With proper precautions, you may even swim with your pump attached.
