I have used one for a very long time. Talk to your doctor and see what they think about the tandem pumps. I recently switched to that one and the app works pretty well with voiceover. Not the new tandem one that came out recently, but the other one. From what I have learned recently, this seems to be the brand that a lot of Blind diabetics are using. You will need sighted help with a lot of as far as getting everything working correctly each time the infusion set needs changed no matter what brand of pump you use especially since you’re new to all this. Although saying that, the rest of what you’re asking I don’t know if I can answer because it’s not really on topic for this list. I hope this helps you. :-) Jeffrey. Sent from my iPhone
