Sensor Issues: DEXCOM

Well, it’s Monday evening and I had to call DEXCOM for a free, new sensor to be sent to me this week. The sensor from last Tuesday afternoon finally didn’t come back and give me any readings/alert to calibrate tonight. It also alarmed inappropriately this morning when I was woken up by the receiver. I have the low setting at 80, so I can do something before I get really low. Oddly, I checked the number and it was 197->. This isn’t even close to 80! There was no reason for the alarm to go off this morning.

I hope this new sensor I just inserted works for me. I will have to see what happens soon after the calibrations are done tonight.

More news on the way!😀👍
