Refill reservoir: sure you can, just hang onto the "screw-in puller" and the "blue bit" and fill it up as if it was new. I refill up to 3 or 4 times often. And if there is any left in the reservoir it will become one with the new filling of insulin. If you don't want to do a set change, just don't change the set at the time, use your existing lead (or a new lead if you want new lead but not new set)!

Edit to add: of course make sure you refill the line, whether new or old, every time you do this. I thoroughly purge insulin through the line with a push from the screwy puller before inserting into the pump, to be sure there are no bubbles from the change of insulin.

So make sure to safe the plunger thing and the blue collar...

And when saving insulin from an older reservoir, I can hook up the old reservoir to my insulin vial and push the insulin back into the vial. Then disconnect the old reservoir and use the new reservoir/set to proceed as with a normal set change?
