[QUOTE="johndavid, post: 74764, member: 19301"] Ive had accu chek spirit pump for a yr and a half now. Difficult to weigh up the pro's and cons of it. on one hand clostrophobic having it strapped to you all the time - but it does cut down on jabs. I had small egg type lumps develop after 6 months. they didn't know what they were - so surgical teams just had fun syringing off lumps and then hacking about and draining!! I changed cannula from flexi one that makes bigger hole to small needle one and change it daily - its ok so far since january. Is anyone worried about going in swimming pools coz the blue cap that fits the canula bit is not water tight - cant help but think of the wee and snot slicks found in pools!!! [/QUOTE]
