[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2112891, member: 101136"] Hi again, I empathise with your health issue. As a non pumper I can only hope experience help and advice can come from those who do pump, & supprt your query by tagging in fellow pump users. Hopefully "bump" your thread too? I've had a look around regarding canula site allergies on the forum, but have only found skin issues regarding the adhesive causing localised skin rashes.. My guess, any possible "toxins" from a Teflon canula would cause an immediate reaction at the point of entry, if it was the Teflon being an issue? But this is only supposition.. I've been diabetic for 43 years I've had the occaisional "frozen shoulder" & pulled the odd muscle. But that's to be expected for a half century guy. Best wishes finding an answer, but please don't discount other possible causation too... Maybe talk with your team regarding changing the type of canula used? [/QUOTE]
