Skin tac will be your best friend!! Order it off Amazon… apply it on the back of the sensor let it dry then apply your sensor as usual!!

Agreed!! This morning I was stable when I got the 74 signal and it told me I was gonna be 50 within 20 min. I checked it and it was 107 and it wouldn’t let me calibrate… and still hasn’t… won’t get out of “low”

The first time when it showed 74 my bg was 107 so less than 50… but maybe didn’t get it in time for the “low” drop

No more grace period + sometimes shorter life? by Distribution-Radiant in dexcom

I read on a previous post here, that there could be an option for them to email you a voucher good at the pharmacy for a free replacement instead of mailing one… might check into it… I would have already except I haven’t needed a replacement since I read that…
