    I use Lyumjev in my Omnipod 5 pump. A vial will last me about 2 weeks. The last time I got a refill of 5 vials the retail cost was almost $1700, I did not pay anywhere near that much. The Endocrinologist who put me on the Omnipod was not happy with the somewhat inferior Novolog because it is not as effective as a basal Insulin. Insulin prices are way too high across the board!

    Has your doctor mentioned this one? I'm asking because I may try it for Type-2 diabetes.

    If you're talking about the Medtronics system, no because when I do see her we are going over all the data uploaded to the Dexcom Clarity and Glooko servers. There is a lot of data to go over.
