Hi does anybody know if you can wear a magnetic bracket / jewelery when you wear an insulin pump ?

Thanks My cannula seems to have been ok for past 3 months the amount of time I have had the pump but what I am finding lately is when I'm I'm doing a bolus as it's going in I get some stinging which really hurts sometimes could that be connected ?x

3 times last night my pump alarm went off saying inclusions last time being 4 am which at that time I got so fed up and completely changed everything the whole kit and caboodle solved the problem but to be honest I could see nothing wrong with anything . Anybody had this problem or any ideas...

Also I don't know if there is any connection but I just feel so much better in myself I don't seem to get so depressed and moody which the family like lol Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

We'll maybe I'm going straight on with no saline because I have been on the accu-chek aviva expert for the last 3 months and that is half the part of the accu-chek combo where your learn all the carbs part of it and it tells you most of what you need on the pump , I dunno I'm just guessing lol...

Yeah I think I would quite like the idea of having a play first but maybe that's the way they do it oh we'll we shall see I just hope I don't mess it up lol Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

It's just that when I spoke to the dsn the other day she said the pump would be fitted on the 30th and she said she would ring me a couple of days before so that I could start to drop some of my lantus beforehand in readiness so was assuming I was going on straight away ! Sent from the...
