BS rise within a couple days of set change

BS rise within a couple days of set change

Has anyone else experienced BS rise a day before the infusion set is due to be changed?  Does the site just go bad...anyone else have to change sites before it's time?  
Thanks, Pam

This can happen because insulin is absorded through the fat cells in your body, thus a sensitivity is reached after about 3 days.  If you are using an area for your site that has been used ofter it can cause to become sensitive quicker and thus your body is not able to absorb the insulin the way and maner in which it should.  Try using other areas of the body and speak with your doc if this becomes a persistant problem.
