Default That adhesive stuff can be nasty....

at best! I've had some problems with different stickinesses and understand it totally!
I suggest you ask Kmeb about this issue as she had a similar issue this past year... apparently there is a less aggravating 'contact' that has less irritating stickiness. She could tell you which one is best as she went thru this with her own holter monitor experiences.
For me? I just get very very red and irritated, usually a hydrocortisone creme or ointment after a swipe w/an alcohol pad to get the 'gunk' off. Just my take on how I do things.
I've not gotten to the point of sores tho, and I'd go w/Mrs D's advice on that aspect. Can I say OUCH! now? 's - j
