[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 185567, member: 17713"] I always get bubbles at 5 hours and 24 hours after a cartridge change. Just do what someone else suggested on here, reprime out the bubbles before they affect me. It only has to be done at 5 hours and 24 hours, and then I can go the rest of the 5 days without worrying. Some people don't get bubbles, even though my reservoirs are absolutely clear of them before I load, and I keep my insulin at room temperature, as it is all used within 4 weeks, I do still get them, but accept that they are part of my best friend working... Does your pump have a separate instruction for prming to the cartridge change, if so just detach the tube from the set and do a prime, but make sure that you bang the pump on a works surface until they all come out and travel the whole length of the tube. Then reattach. [/QUOTE]
