[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1548864, member: 53162"] Hi Nomi - I use a clock rotation method on my stomach so I don't over work any one particular area, so if one day the cannula goes in at 12 then it goes in at 6 on the next positioning and I keep going round clockwise in this way, each area get's time to heal then. I have heard some use backs of their arms, I haven't tried this as i've got the tubing and not sure how I could cope with tops, exercise and getting changed, I did try an experiment on my bum but couldn't sleep well with it there, as it kept waking me up, back of love handles could be an idea as long as you can see what you're doing and are happy it's definitely stuck on and in your skin. Can your DSN get the pump rep in to see what other options are available to you ? [/QUOTE]
