[QUOTE="Boysie1985, post: 1584142, member: 132797"] When using weights and heavy bench presses, whilst lifting the weights onto my thighs and then transferring to my chest I have caught the cannula a number of times. Placing on my thighs, buttocks and abdomen have all been caught before. Then there's the issue of swimming where I can't even wear it. I find that I cant connect to my arms or various parts of my body due to the tubing - when in my arm it lasted a number of hours before being pulled out on the spin bike. With the omnipod I think arm placement would be much easier to do. I've received a response from omnipod who have confirmed that my hospital in Guildford do actually order from them. So I'm not sure why they are now refusing it - especially now hearing that price wise it isn't actually much more than tubes pumps that they are currently offering. [/QUOTE]
