[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 342922, member: 17713"] Still wear mine on my arm with tubigrip (supplied on prescription each month). Just cut a piece off, and put on arm... Lay pump on it.. Tube going to elbow and then curve it back up your arm. Lay a 2nd piece of tubigrip over pump. Needs a long tube though.. Mine 100cm as my sets go in bum or legs. Apart from baths n showers, it never comes off my arm day or night. I never give it a thought. Never have to think to hold pump whilst undressing or whether I am lying on it. In fact the tubigrip holding it close to my arm keeps it warm when I work outside...... I have recently had a cgm on my other arm and wearing the monitor on my belt... The only problem I get is when any HCP wants to do a blood pressure check when I have a cgm on one arm and the pump on the other!! You'll find whats comfy for you, but don't rush in to deciding pre pump... You may be given some things by your hospital. I was. [/QUOTE]
