Taking it on and off… then guestimating top-up doses to cover. Suddenly sounding a bit more of a faff again! …and you were nearly getting me convinced – are you on commission?
Not
Silly question… how long is the cannula? Just wondering if you have to wear/hang the pump in different places when you shift infusion sites around.
I’m so intolerant of sitting/leaning on stuff I suspect I’d need some sort of strapping/sling so I could wear it mid-torso and/or pretend to be an undercover cop with a wire.
Since the vial of insulin is out in all weathers too do you have to watch how hot you’ve been getting? Just thinking of lying, baking on a beach in the glorious British sunshine(!). With my handy MDI stuff I can just keep it somewhere cool, bottom of a bag or wherever… How do they suggest you cope with summer holidays?
