New Sensor This Afternoon: 4-4-2021

Good afternoon everyone. Here’s the update for the last 10 days for the old sensor.

When I had inserted the old sensor, it was working okay, but not right away after the 2 hour warm up period. This was very shocking to see because it was a new sensor at the time. Along with issues in the beginning, there were a lot of alarms/alerts going on and off during the day/night time hours. This caused a lot of sleep issues/not getting enough sleep/having a massive headache and feeling tired during the day.

As for the new sensor, it’s still in its warm up period and will be done by 3 pm today. Once it is done, there will hopefully be a blood sugar reading.

Have a wonderful day/evening/night and stay safe, happy and healthy! Watch this page for more updates coming soon!😀👍

Some sensors have issues as the week/time period goes by while other sensors have lasted for the entire time with no issues.

If a sensor doesn’t last for the entire time, it is replaced for free.😀
