hi guys,
I’ve been having fun with my infusion sets recently and found i’m having to change them every day or so. On top of that the new box seems to have extra strong adhesive so i’m covered in red welts when I take them off.
My stomach is a no go area now for infusion sets whilst it all heals, but i’m struggling to know where else to put my cannula.
Legs or bum aren’t great as the insulin gets sucked in as soon as I walk, so I run high for ages and then plummet into hypo-ville. I do use my arms, but I can’t keep doing that with a new set every day.
Is there anywhere else people put them that I could try?
Thanks for your help
