Hi there, My little boy is type one diabetic for three yers now, he was diagnosed when he was two. He's been on a pump for the past two years, using Nova Rapid insulin. Last July he has developed muscle wastage in this bottom as this was the only place we could insert the canulas as he has very little fat on his body. He now has two dents in his bottom and we cnt use this area anymore. The diabetic team have no idea how or why this has happened, they are investigting it since July but we are still none the wiser. Can anyone please help thanks
