[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1485231, member: 41816"] Hi, I think the best indication of whether the filament is still inserted, is whether you have readings or not. So you should find that out very quickly. Also, if the glue has peeled off your arm at all, you might want to consider sticking a plaster (as [USER=53162]@Juicyj[/USER] does) or a dressing over it (I use Opsite, but there are several brands, including Rocktape, I think). Lots of us clip them on doorframes to start with. I haven't lost one that way, but have come close. I did lose one by scraping it off when I put a bag over my shoulder. Still can't work out how that happened! In the end I slowly moved successive sensors further and further around towards the back/inside of my arm, and now it doesn't seem to catch on anything.
