[QUOTE="Kalobe, post: 2372710, member: 27053"] Make sure the needle can be seen poking out through the cannula before you insert. Don’t push down when you place the insert on your skin Try to avoid your firm toned muscles I’ve found that these help. A bent cannula will not let the insulin flow correctly. You can usually tell within a couple of hours. (I also give myself a tiny bolus just before I change to cover the hour or so that it takes for the new site to start absorbing) [/QUOTE]
