I stopped using the mio after only about 3 months due to rashes, sore sites, raised bg levels and worked out I was allergic to the plastic cannulas, so have switched to the Sure T - as it's a steel set and easier to insert, on the plus side I only get red marks from the adhesive but as it doesn't affect my bg levels it's a minor thing - however I am struggling with sites as i've started to get slower absorption on some areas and raised bg levels, so this morning looked for a fresh site on my tum and went in at the side but as it's a bit leaner there the site quickly became painful and i've had to resort back to the softer padding round the belly button on my tum. I tend to rotate around my belly button, did try bum once but as I sleep on it I found that area uncomfortable.
Question for sure t users is do you have any other sites you use ?
