Probably not the best title - but some reassurance for anyone this hasn't happened to yet - had my first cannula rip-out after snagging on the stair gate today (safey device, huh, ironic...)...and the good news is actually, not sore! :D Slight sting, but more surprise than anything else & nothing worse than normally removing a cannula for a set change. Phew...another niggle re pumping eased! :D
 
Hehe! I managed to pull one half-out hitching my trousers up in the first few weeks. Glad it wasn't too sore 🙂
 
I was climbing out of a loft at work & didnt tube catch on ladder ! NEARLY fell of ladder (sticky stuff is quite good !) 😱
 
Hi twitchy, I caught mine and ripped it out while at my parents caravan. I try to make sure I tuck the tubes right down. I now use the shorter ones of 20 cm(rapid d link).
