[QUOTE="izzyj09, post: 1054000, member: 264012"] Honestly, for me if I'm going out and some idiot decided to yank on it, it's not the end of the world, a girly trip to a loo and Fire a new one in ! I know at first it seems like a really hard thing to hide and you think it's massive but it's not at all, if you have it tucked in your waist band most people either think your super cool and have your mobile phone or think it's a MP3 player type thing. I've even been asked if its one of these fitness things Cannula's I find don't hurt at all, you have to get used to them and it looks scary at first but I found it no harder than the injections. Those horror stories are for people who don't look after themselves, I change mine ever three days and have never got infected or anything like that. If it puts your mind at rest, I wore a bodycon dress the other night, skin tight and literally just put a tuber grip round my stomach and put it in the small of my back, and my best friend panicked as she thought I'd taken it off for pictures !
