Hi you lovely lot,
I'm just wondering what people use on their skin before putting on a CGM? My lo has really sensitive skin and came out in a bit of a rash?
TIA
 
Dont know But if very allergic coconut oil is good for the skin
 
Hi @Skye's_mummy,

I have a similar problem where the adhesive takes my skin off when I remove the dressing attached to my pump cannula.
My DSN gave me a spray to put on before I stick it on. There are several different ones, but it did help. Hopefully something like that would work for you.

See if your GP/ DSN can give you one on prescription?

That's great thanks I'll ask them.
I buy one to remove her cannula/CGM but we need one for before for her CGM I think.
I'm at hospital with her tomorrow so I'll ask then.
