Sensor and bleeding

Diabetes Technology Glucose Monitoring
#1

I use the Quick Set as my infusion set. It goes in at 90* and it works perfect.The sensor and all the other sets Ive used go in at 30* or so and they all bleed like crazy. Im not sure if its walking around and its moving inside and nicking capillaries or what...

Anybody and thoughts or help?

What sensor are you using? I know some books tell you to go in at 30-45 degrees, but I find that putting it in at near 75 makes a big difference (nearly vertical insertion). My trainer for the Sensor told me to do it that way. Let us know how it works out for you.
