Hey

Any ideas greatly appreciated

Sudacrem!! Rub it on after each old site. It works for me and I’m allergic to even plasters. I have a big pot in my kit bag. Also - use medical remover spray before pulling the pod off.
 
It’s called Opus liftplus [emoji6][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]] . Get mine from Amazon. A little spray gets it off very easily. Our omnipod trainer said it was essential as you have to keep your skin healthy for full use of all your sites.
