How brave!You will tell us.

It sounds to me that there were tandem users in the forum, but I haven't seen comments, the truth.I can't advise you on a bomb, I don't use.I can only tell you that I use Abbot for almost a year and I left it by allergy in the skin and I went to DG6, which I have been using for three years.And it works very well.Only the first day requires some calibration, and then it is like a clock.The strips are expired!Sometimes I do some hair control, and compare it to the sensor and always leave me impressed.The differences are usually more/less 10, and it must be taken into account that the capillary is also approximate and has error.With what sometimes I don't know who is fine, if the capillary or the sensor!

Well I hope you change you good.At first as everything you will have a little more complicated time.And you will tell us

All the best

I do not know how the Tandem bomb works, so I see on its website is more modern than the insight (touch screen and reservoir almost double the insight).Free use2+xDrip+aaps with insight and I'm delighted.As I just postponed in a thread, Diabelop, they offered it to me and I was free2 for not carrying one more mobile.So I see control IQ is ontegrated in the pump.That's ok.With Aaps Msnejas everything from the mobile.

I have tried both (now I am with the Tandem) and if it is expected to finance the dexcom G6 (in the Canary Islands it is), go for the Tandem without a doubt.

Thank you very much to everyone :) In the end I will take the insight and work with apps, within a year it is expected that they finance the Dexcom and I will change to the fixed tandem, for now the insight ^^
