Until she grows, we reuse sites regularly and I have often wondered how long it takes to kill a spot. Ugh. Hip and thighs suck for kids in winter clothes. I love the belly...<br /><br />Just need ours to last until that cure shows up ;)<br /><br />StacyStacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10979357085638672145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-17486359479751333752010-10-06T16:09:24.570-04:002010-10-06T16:09:24.570-04:00What I did...I switched to shots and am so glad I ...What I did...I switched to shots and am so glad I did. A1c is great and I'm not spending all day in frustration over my dead spots. I take 2-4 allergy shots a week for the past 10 years so that accelerated the problem...sysy moraleshttp://thegirlsguidetodiabetes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-44027734952285437352010-10-06T14:56:46.435-04:002010-10-06T14:56:46.435-04:00About a year ago I read this story
http://www.scie...About a year ago I read this story<br />http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/11/091102171217.htm <br /><br />It is about an enzyme that is infused into scar laden areas that can cause the scar tissue to change into normal tissue...<br /><br />While this story was initially about spinal column scarring, it seems like it just might have other applications as well...<br /><br />#whodathunkit<br /><br />Did I actually just use a hashtag in a blog comment.

I "try" to rotate - and remember to leave spot alone for at least a month (I've got a HUGE stomach - which I'm trying to flatten - but giving up as I get older). I try to use as much "real estate" on my body as I can as well - e.g. legs, upper/lower back. I'd like to try arms - but not sure about tubing, etc. - plus someone would have to help me as I use the stainless steel needle one (not automated). What do you use for infusion sets?<br />I know this isn't much help - but feel for you.FatCatAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07066683693099915727noreply@blogger.com
