[QUOTE="RFSMarch, post: 1707273, member: 410451"] So it is sensor changeover day, and having got these silicon barrier wipes, and spent a fair while discussing the issue with a product specialist, despite having come to view compeed as a bit of a security blanket... We have decided silicon barrier and then sensor on the skin. It has caused me to go back and look at what concoctions I had tried and what was failing... all my skin irritation started when I used skintac, and then variations thereof. So... a quick diary. Day -1 Applied wipe *generously* around the area high up on my right arm. It has been probably 4 weeks or so since I had anything on this limb and there is still some heavy disolouration around the arm but no more rashes or raised skin and have been slathering in sudocream and every so often some low-level cortisone cream to help heal that.
