Re: [IPk] How Long for Cannula's

[Steven J Sexton <email @ redacted>]

Hi

I tend to swap around the 3 - 4 day mark. I normally get through one 
cartridge of insulin per week, so tend to change about half way through ie 
150ml mark.

On the odd occasion I have gone longer, typically 5 or 6 days without any 
adverse affects. but I don't tend to do this often.

Kind regards

Steven
