Hi all,
has anyone else been informed that theflexlnk plus is being recalled because of problems in america?
My nurse called me last night to come into the clinic today to get some rapid-D sets, and to order some as accu-chek are re-calling the flex link plus cannulas and infusion sets, and to expect a letter to come from them to advise what to do with the ones i have at home (dispose or send back).
with this in mind my order arrived with two boxes of flex link plus and two assists that are now useless, i wasn't having any problems and apparently they haven't had any problems in the UK.
Apparently it's kinking problems and patients are finding they aren't getting their insulin properly.
I expected to see a post here already but i can't see one from anyone else thats all?
On a lighter note, i like the rapid-D as its easier to insert and its not as bulky
