Apologies again for another post...
i recently had bleeding into cannula and out of instinct I changed the set immediately even though it seemed to be having no effect on my sugars...
the replacement set i have put isnt bleeding into the cannula, however looking at the clear patch where the cannula goes in it has been bleeding a fair bit and still looks like it's bleeding, it is sore too but im used to that now.
As it is having no effect on my insulin do I change it now or wait until i'm due to change it tomorrow?
I seem to have had to change 90% of my infusion sets before the 3 days and even though I don't pay for them I am worried about ordering them "too often" and getting into trouble for the amount i'm ordering - i did a bit of research and was shocked :shock: at the cost of the infusion set's and insulin and because im usually changing after about 2 days I'm wasting a days worth of insulin!!!
