Yet another Infusion Set

Yesterday afternoon I decided to give MiniMed a call and ask for some samples of an infusion set I had yet to try, the Sof-Set. Now I know I talk very highly of the Sure-T infusion set, it is rather great, but honestly I got bored of it (hey you have to have fun SOMEHOW with diabetes). What I liked about it is that it doesn't have a big white ring of adhesive like most do. I have trouble with adhesives sticking to begin with so I always end up adding IV3000 over my sets anyway, I figured I might as well get rid of that ring and use my own adhesive all together.

Anyway, they arrived at 8:30 the next morning! So far I am very pleased with this set, it is just what I needed, small, clear, easy. As usual your mileage may vary, so it won't work for everyone. In fact, most diabetics I know just use the white adhesive on the set and nothing else, but if you're like me and end up taping it anyway, give the Sof-Set a try!

I'll update this post as I start to learn more about the set and get more used to it!
