[Diabetes-talk] Insulin Pumps, and Scar Tissue from Years of Syringes

[Everett Gavel]

Hi Bridgit, 

For the first 25 years I only used my outer thighs
and tricep areas. My inner thighs have always
seemed to be more sensitive and I don't like the
way it feels so have mostly avoided shots there.
For the last 10 years or so I've used my stomach
and sides to give shots. Until getting my pump a
couple/few years ago. Now, due to what seems to be
poor absorption due to scar tissue, I've been
trying other areas. 


Strive On!

I only use my tummy and llower back. I rotate
around my tummy, lower and
higher, on the sides and then my lower back. I
have yet to try any other
location on my body, but I know a lot of people
use their inner thighs and
back of the arms. I know women who carry their
pump in their bra, but I
personally do not know any woman who places the
site anywhere in their
breast, but I'm sure you can.
