Pump question

[Pattidevans]

i found that patti, both types keep the cannula there but, the flexlink ones peel off alot easier than the metal ones.

I also had a couple of Rapid D links fall out in bed whilst I was asleep. Glad to say the FlexLinks seem better anchored.

Happened once to me, woke up with a scratching sensation on my arm. lines of red scratches where it had been rubbing, didn't even notice, when I seen them they hurt like hell lol. Not used them since. Have had the flexlink detach very rarely but, no cuts with them ones

You could have hit some of the fatty tissue under the skin with the cannula. I have this sometimes and as you have said that you have bad sites from injecting it's probably that you put the cannula too close to this.

I don't know what I'm using to be honest :/
I got given it on Monday and I've got it until Wednesday next week so it's not the one I have forever.
I just wondered if anyone else had bled like that.

Hi Indiana
I have this pump I've had mine since September 11 I've only ever had a couple of sites bleed usually if I've sited it over my hip I tend to go for fleshy areas works well for me I also use the flex link 8mm these are Teflon cannulas hope this helps and good luck x

Thank you it'll just be a case of trial end error with it I think.
I'll work it out eventually!
