Re: [IP] re: extra reservoirs filled up...question...good or bad?



 I prefill one and keep it with me when I am getting low. I hate being at work
or out somewhere and having the alarm go off telling me to change the set.
People around me think my pump is going to blow up or something. It only takes a
minute to change and I am on my way.

I have always filled extra reservoirs for my pumps. I fill 5 at a time with the
 last one only being about 2/3's full--the others are completely full. I then
put
the reservoirs in a small container in my refrigerator. I also do not like
filling reservoirs--yes, it only takes about 15 to 20 minutes but seems like
forever! What I really don't like is going to the refrigerator and finding no
reservoirs! Yes, I let them run out then have to do the fill procedure! I was
taught to pre-fill by the lady who donated me my first set of H-tron pumps
 nearly 6 years ago. I have pre-filled all along and do not plan on quitting
this
process!
