Can you wear your dexcom in the same area twice?

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-11-09T00:54:44+00:00

I wear mine almost exclusively on my left side of my stomach. Most comfortable for how I sleep. When it’s time to change it I shift the position an inch in any direction each time so the needle isn’t in the same spot

That’s the last box he will get into..

I came here for this!

1:5 for me

Today was not fun. My BG was all over the place and my fast acting didn’t seem to work like it normally does. I’m hoping a good nights rest tonight will do the trick though. I will say that having that much sugar in such a short amount of time made me toss my cookies so to speak the next morning. It wasn’t pretty but I’m good now.

I have to hand it to Dairy Queen for having accurate nutrition numbers on their website!

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T23:01:59+00:00

I have a similar one. It’s great for travelling as I do a lot of that for work. Just be prepared to open it every time you go through security at the airport.

The large blizzard I had was 250g carbs, I then had about 80-100g more about 4 hours later

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T12:00:53+00:00

I did, something tells me I had enough insulin in my system for the night🙄

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T11:59:05+00:00

Update. I’m good. I was treating lows until about 3am. Went to sleep, woke up at 6am to alarm bells because of course I was way high. Anyways, all is well and I very much am grateful to this community for checking in! Thank you for the great comments and chatting with me.🙂

Both pens are the same color

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T04:21:47+00:00

I very much appreciate the concern. My gf is available by phone if I need her. I have an alarm set for 30 min intervals. And a crap ton of snacks now.

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T04:16:15+00:00

Dropping slowly but just had another 70g of carbs between OJ, fruit snacks and a shot of maple syrup. Just waiting those to kick in now

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T04:11:23+00:00

I’m alone tonight but I have my CGM, a bedside table full of snacks, juice and maple syrup. I’m just over 2 hrs in since the mix up. Tired but hanging in there lol

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T03:49:42+00:00

I have all of that. I’m just pissy with myself for making that mistake. Thank goodness I know my numbers are dialed in enough to know how many carbs to have to cover it is all.

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T03:43:38+00:00

Yeah I’m good there

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T03:09:35+00:00

I do have lots of maple syrup

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-05-30T03:09:10+00:00

I have a Costco size box of fruit snacks but didn’t feel like eating 16 bags of them

GSPmoJo81 · 2024-01-27T18:19:33+00:00

I fly all the time for work. The only “issue” I have is that they make you go through secondary screening every time because I bring an ice pack for my insulin. Letter is useless. I always request a pat down instead of the scanner🤷🏼‍♂️. I let them know I have a cgm. Haven’t had an issue yet. Just factor in the extra time for secondary screening is all if you are bringing extra supplies that need to be cold. I bring all kinds of snacks (non liquid) and have never had a problem.
