Paris, are you sure they are bubbles?
Check if over time they move from site, (you can make a marquite with a marker)
Many times appear as white spots, in the cable, as if they were bubbles, but they are not.They are usually in the same place until you change the catheter.It is as if the cable be folded at some point and get whitish.

They are bubbles.When bait comes out ... maybe it is due to physical activity.I don't know...

I can't help you because it doesn't happen to me, I didn't happen with Humalog and it doesn't happen to me .... I don't know if it will have something to do insulin or with the reservoir or the bomb itself.

Hello Paris, we hems suffered from bubbles many times .... how do you load the reservoir?, We use the pen as if it were a vial, extracting insulin so as not to introduce it under pressure (which was the way they taught us), soWe managed to reduce them to a very important extent ... other times temperature changes, heat, make TB.That they form more, but of course loading like this, it will surely improve.

Greetings.
