Claim:
An infusion set, comprising: a base for providing a subcutaneous infusion path in a first generally linear direction, said base having a first surface that faces a skin surface of a user when said base is supported on said skin surface and when said infusion set is used to pass fluids to said user; a cannula connected to and extending away from the base; a connector removably attachable to the base, the connector having a fluid flow path that extends in generally the first linear direction and aligns with the linear subcutaneous path upon the connector being attached to the base; and a tubing affixed to the connector, wherein the connector is rotatable on the base more than 5 degrees while the cannula is at a subcutaneous position and limited to less than 360 degrees around an axis that is substantially perpendicular to said first surface of said base, when the connector is removably attached to the base, wherein the connector comprises at least one stop surface for inhibiting rotation of the connector beyond 360 degrees; and wherein a contiguous passage for passing fluids is formed from the tubing to the cannula when the connector is removably attached to the base.
