Inset cannula bent?

I just replaced my site and ive noticed on all the Insets i remove, all of the cannula's are bent at the tip. Is this normal? I have the 9mm, is it too long? My BG levels are fine, here's a picture...

Yikes. That happened to me when using the 9mm; it rarely happened with the 6mm.

I hate it when that happens!! When I found what you found, I was NOT getting any insulin.

hmmm, I wonder if I should try the 6mm? How would I go about getting one without ordering a box of them from Animas? Find someone with this pump that has the 6mm?

I contacted Animas and told them about the cannula being bent when I change sites. Right now I have 3 full boxes of 9mm Insets, they will be mailing me 3 boxes of the 6mm. We'll see how they work.
