[QUOTE="MushyPeaBrain, post: 637967, member: 27914"] [USER=66676]@ConradJ[/USER] I'm on the Animas and used to find bolusing painful sometimes. Have you changed the delivery setting to slow? I only ever bolus 2.5u in one go which solved the issue for me. So if I need 6u I do 2.5u, pause, another 2.5u, pause again and then a final 1u. I tried the steel sets for while and found the bolus more painful due to the steel being thinner than Teflon. In fact the pump delivery was so powerful it was pushing the cannulas out slightly so I needed to use 8mm steel instead. The animas has the most powerful delivery so other pumps might suit you better from that point of view. [/QUOTE]
