My Preferred Diabetes Device Sites

Where you wear your type 1 diabetes devices on your body is a personal choice and there are loads of factors that may make one site preferable over another. In this video I chat through all the places I've tried wearing both my Omnipod insulin pump and my Dexcom G6 CGM, and talk about why some places suit me more than others. Hopefully this is useful if you're thinking about getting a diabetes device - I didn't wear any diabetes devices for 18 years and now I comfortably wear two on my body at all times, but it did take a bit of getting used to before I fully embraced my bionic bits.
The considerations around the patch pump vary greatly from insulin pumps with tubing, where only the cannula is attached to your body, but as ever this is just my personal experience :)

Let me know where your preferred sites are, or what you maybe what the deciding factors are for you!
