Cannuals don't stick in heat

[monikavece]

Hi,

I absolutely love my pump as it's changed my life completely. Last summer holidays I had to go back to insulin pens and it was a nightmare. The only problem I'm experiencing with the pump is that cannulas are not sticking to my body during hot and sweaty days. I wouldn't like to face the same problem again this year so was anybody in a similar situation like me? How does cannulas adhesive side react when you go to the gym and sweat?
I'll be very grateful for any suggestions.

We just recently came back from Goa (90 degrees) and my daughters csnnulas never came off, even when spending hours in the sea or swimming pool.
We used a product called Skin Tac, which you get direct from the importers, (MG Healthcare). They cost about £17 for 50 so not particularly cheap but they are fantastic and we have been using them for 3 months without any trouble.
Hope this helps

Harry

Thank you Harry. I'll definitely try Skin Tac.
