[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2419092, member: 365308"] I like my pump (Roche insight) and don't have much problem with lumps possibly because I am not injecting large basal doses into one place at one time. Also I tend to do small boluses for meals due to low carb diet. Hourly basal for me is under 1 unit. I normally know if I have hit a lump as it bleeds and feels bruised. The other thing is the canulas vary but if you have the soft ones this must help you wear the canula 24/7 for 3-4 days without inflamation. Now swapping to Dexcom + Tandom Basal IQ so I can try out auto corrective doses. This happens to be a small pump too. I wear my pump in a crop top bra (doing a lot of exercise) and I don't think it is obvious but as others have pointed out you couldn't wear a lycra catsuit and conceal it! Nor is it terribly obvious and you can invest in specialist underwear or a pump belt to wear it unobtrusively. [/QUOTE]
