[QUOTE="Mia4554, post: 1860922, member: 64649"] I had the same issues with injecting and also did use my bum and my hips but changed to a pump as was just sore all over all the time. I took a while to find the best sets for me and prefer the metal/ steel (not sure what they are) but they were the last ones I was given to try as I was told that most people don't like them. When I was injecting i was on 8mm for many years even though I have also always been quite slim and it was only about a year before I went on a pump that I had changed hospitals due to moving and the new doc was horrified that I wasn't on 4mm but it had never occurred to me there might be other needle options! I now mostly use my pump but have little pump breaks and inject if I am getting lots of leakages from sites. I like being able to switch every now and then as I find it remotivates me. Good luck with your switch to the pump [emoji4] [/QUOTE]
