[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 1945974, member: 468714"] On second and a bit days of the 8 mm steel cannula (although the rep told me that steel cannulas tend to last 2 days only as the body starts to reject the steel). No problems with BSLs that I think are related to the cannula so will press on and hopefully only need to change it at day 3, but will be watchful. The other thought was whether when a cannula is located in some scar tissue whether a more or less forceful pumping in of the bolus helps or hinders. Could the stronger bolus of the past Animas pump have dispersed the scar tissue and spread the insulin under the skin a bit better compared to the gentler bolus of the Tandem pump or not?? ? increased risk of leakage from the cannula tip up under the adhesive patch with the stronger bolusing force?? No conclusions yet!! [/QUOTE]
