[QUOTE="iHs, post: 639845, member: 8799"] I think when you are new to pumping, most dsns like people to fill their cartridges with enough insulin to last 3 days and change the tube and set at the same time but this is just to get people used to the procedure. I fill my cartridge with enough insulin to last 6 days and either change the sets every 3 or 2 days and use the same tube to last 6 days and replace it when the cartridge runs out. This doesn't always coincide at the same time though so I dont worry any way. Nothing bad is going to happen if the set is replaced one day and the cartridge and tube the next. [/QUOTE]
