| fgummett, I keep my pump in my pocket of my shorts I sleep in. As I said in my original post I have been careful to make sure that I am not lating on it or the tubing at all sicne I have been experiencing teh problem. Also I did not change the way I inserted the sils sicne losing the weight. I have always inserted them by hand. I slightly pinch my skin and then push it in. I have been using a pump for nearly 10 years and I have not had any consistent problems with occlusions until recently and it seems to have coincided with the weight loss. It almost seems like the cannula is fine during the day when I am either sitting down or stading up but when I lay down it gets occluded.
xMenace, thanks for the link but the causes listed do not really apply to my situation as I have experienced the problem with brand new inserted sites and I replace my infusion sets every 3 days at most and usually every 2.
I have mainly inserted into my stomach though I have tried to experiment with insertign into my buttocks recently to see if it helps. Any idea if a different are might be better for avioding occlusions?  |
