Another Sensor: DEXCOM

Well, this is a new warmup period this afternoon because the sensor from Saturday kept going on and off with alarms and no readings. I inserted the new sensor then called for a free replacement to be here in the next few days.

I had been notified that I was falling with 2 arrows straight down before lunch today. I tested and I was 216 at the time! The receiver said I was 186 at the same time.

Well, time to get ready for dinner here tonight soon. Have a good night!😀👍🌈

Thank you, Tim. I will check your reply tomorrow morning after I get done with my breakfast.😀👍🌈

Oh dear this is all bad news with sensor failures and miss readings, so I hope that you get this sorted as the G6 is supposed to be an upgrade!

Good luck with the new one and enjoy your day now Leah. 🌈👍😀

Yes, an upgrade is suppose to be better than what had been used before. I also learned something else very interesting. You sometimes can feel the sensor roll and poke a person underneath the skin where the sensor had been inserted. I thought that wouldn't happen with the G6 ( I've had this happen a few times over the years with the G4).

Have a great day, too, Hidden . :-) Thanks! :-)
