[QUOTE="iHs, post: 899827, member: 8799"] I tend to use clear transpore tape which sticks ok and is waterproof and sometimes use a bit of Opsite flexifix as that is really good and doesnt leave clothes die marks around the edges. As for absorbtion issues......the very back part of bum where no pen needle went is ok if I use a 30 degree angle set and get his nibs to help me a bit pulling the introducer out ok and putting some Opsite over the top to make sure the set doesnt come loose when pulling knickers up and down on the loo. Upper tummy is ok but that's because I rrarely ever did a pen injection there unless bg was very high. Most of the time arms for bolus and side bum for basal. [/QUOTE]
