This picture is from 7:02 pm tonight. This is still going on for now. If it’s not back by the time I have to go to bed, I will have to change the sensor and then call for another free replacement. There were some issues earlier this morning (3 alarms going off and woke me up). Also, the numbers kept going in and out this afternoon. The sad part is, I put the sensor in on Friday at 8:31 am. Will have to see what happens soon.

Stay safe and healthy!😀👍🌈

Hey Leah I’m so sorry as this is not going well for you so I hope that you and DEXCOM get this sorted.

I admire how chirpy you remain with all this going on so good for you and good luck.

You stay safe and well now. 🌈👍😀

Hi Hidden ,

Yes, chipper is the right word. It keeps coming on and off, so I never know if I will have to replace a sensor, yet. It went away at some point this morning, but it's back working, again, so we'll see what needs to be done during the day today. The last time it wasn't working, it wasn't gone long enough to say it had to be changed.

It’s working right now. Hope it will keep going during the rest of the day and at bedtime tonight.😀👍🌈

Fingers crossed all goes well and you don't get woken up in the night.

Hope it doesn’t alarm unless it’s an emergency.😀👍🌈

Maybe you should have a little more carbs for your bedtime snack just to be on the safe side.
