I have/had a belt clip for my minimed. Tonight when I was getting in my car, my pump got caught on something and the clip broke. I've never used my pump without its clip! I don't want to just carry it around all the time... Any suggestions on what to do with it until I can get a new clip ordered/delivered?
Possibly put it in your pocket. :)
That's really all I can think of!
Sorry!!
Hope that helps a little bit!
Blessings.
Yes, that would be the logical thing to do. If only it were that simple...
I have my infusion set on my right side and my CGM on the left. My pump has to stay on my left side to communicate with the CGM and I don't have quite enough slack in my tube to let it sink all the way to the bottom of my pocket. Pocket solution will work in a day and a half when I have to move my CGM to a new location!
Hmm..I'm out of ideas!!
I'm so sorry! ://.
have you tried using a cell phone carrier? i heard that from a guy on youtube 1happydiabetic. get one with a clip on it.
That just happened to me a couple days ago, I went to sit down and the clip just broke in half and I felt my pump swaying. I wore really comfortable pants and put the pump in my pocket. The pants helped because I felt very strange not having my pump attached to my belt. It was a long 3 days haha.
I have found that you can tuck the pump into the waistband of your underwear. That is the best place.
I have had the Minimed clip break many times on me. What I found is that the clip with the 'lock and unlock' sign on it works best. Also, if the 'swing' mechanism on the clip starts to swing freely back and forth, I have found that if you superglue it in place it works. You will not be able to swing it anymore, but it beats having to buy a new one for $20.00!!
