Been thinking of having a pump for a while due to lipohypertrophy, the clinic and GP seem not to want me to have this
due to expenses but I think having a long term cannula situated could be the lesser of the two evils and cheaper, I know cancer patients have these for their chemo and other drug administration so what are your thoughts on this idea?
 
You could see how you like the iPort-Advance if you can get it.
You apply a new one every 3 days and inject through that instead of directly into your skin.
I never tried one but I've heard from others that they found it helpful.
