I'm just curious if anyother pumpers out there have had any problems with their sites and putting them into the muscle. I am fairly lean and find that all I seem to hit when putting in my site is muscle - which tends to hurt. A couple of times the canula has been bent when i pull it out. I am using the Inset infusion set - so there isn't a problem with the insertion. ANyways, yeah. Advice, info, anything would be wonderful. Thanks!

I'm not horribly lean, but have put my site into a muscle several times. Does your company make a shorter cannala? Minimed makes a 9mm and a 6mm, so a shorter cannala might help. Good luck!
