Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jugster" data-source="post: 119694" data-attributes="member: 24913">I live in America and have been on a pump for 16 years. I was recently interesed in getting  a CONTINUOUS BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITOR. This is not actually part of the pump. It is a competely differnt unit.  Its pretty small about the size of a 50p.  Although a lot of the infusion sets have a plastic canular at the end the CONTINUOUS BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITOR has a needle which is inserted into the skin and stays in.  I developed an allergy to the plastic on the canulars on the infusion sets I was using so have to use a Sure T which has a needle which stays in all the time.. the needle on the CONTINUOUS BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITOR is substancially larger than the one I am used to using on my infusion set.I hope some of this info is useful to you.Good Luck</blockquote>
