Update: DEXCOM

Sorry this is a little late, but been really busy lately with a few things.....

This is the update on how things went last week with the old sensor. First of all, the old sensor and the one I'm using now both did the same thing-- said I was out of range during the warm up period. So, when this happened, the pie chart went away and there was a circle with a line through it along with an icon of an antenna. That lasted for a few minutes, so I didn't have to call anyone to see why this was happening. This happened yesterday morning, as well when I was heading to my job for the day. Not a good way to start a new week with a new sensor, but it worked out afterwards.

At my job, I did the two calibrations to start getting results around 10:35 am. Not too bad, but seemed to take a long time to tell me that it was time to do everything.

Today, I have dancing after dinner, so we'll see how it goes with the sensor. I hope there aren't any other hiccups when I'm out of the house.

How's everyone else doing?
