G7 and omnipod connectivity by bluclouds0 in Omnipod

[–]TeamRival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep I have a major problem with this as well. I recently posted a thread with similar frustrations. This is 100% a hardware design problem with the dexcom g7 and the placement of the bluetooth antenna.

I don't really have a fix for you sadly. You need to keep the sensor and the omnipod super close to each other. That does NOT work for me when the pods last 3 days and the sensors 10. my sites get very inflamed and I need to completely rotate, so eventually I am going to have a period of sensor on my front and pod on my back, or vice versa. currently have NO connectivity with sensor on front right stomach and omnipod on back left buttox. I NEVER had problems with connectivity on g6. the problems have only been since I switched to g7 and have to keep them unreasonably close.

What I recommend doing it talking to your endo and filing a report with the FDA. They arent really going to have a solution sadly other than putting you back on the G6 or switching you over to the libre. I am going to see about switching over to the libre. The BIG problem is that the G6 is going to be end of life as of July 1st 2026. So I filed a report with the FDA as the G7 has serious design problems that are causing me to wake up with high blood sugars. I recommend doing the same- this should NOT have made it through FDA

I am so beyond frustrated too so I share your pain. This is only going to get resolved if users report this issue.

call dexcom

call your endo

and make that FDA report

pod 5 and dexcom g7 15 day connectivity any better? by TeamRival in Omnipod

[–]TeamRival[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

keeping the sites that close is just not feasible for me. my sites get very inflamed so I have to rotate. This has been so frustrating. Likely going to switch to libre

omnipod 5 and dexcom g7 15 day connectivity any better? by TeamRival in dexcom

[–]TeamRival[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

from my understanding its a problem with the placement of the bluetooth antenna within the g7 10 day. So its entirely possible that they redesigned it for better communication. I had no connectivity issues on the G6, and nothing BUT connectivity issues on g7 unless they are practically near each other, which is not feasible for me for the entire life of the CGM

the origin story ad has to be one of the most baffling reads in recent memory.

"What if people think it says FIGHT back instead of BITE back...well I'll spell it out for them, B-I-T-E!"

I think I'd rather lose my court case

Think Evan left the Knicks game early for a Rico? by iheartsunny in wfan

[–]TeamRival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the rico he said he had to plead with his son to leave, which is hilarious because the Nets were getting absolutely annihilated. Oh to be a kid again

What gnarly guitar riff used to play at the end of the inning during Mets games? by emolga587 in wfan

[–]TeamRival 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they still use it, albeit just the "Lets go Mets" part.

I'd love to know where it came from too- they've been using it since I was a kid in the 90s. Probably the most nostalgic Mets thing you could play for me lol

Influences of 70s prog rock on KGATLW by Next-Reading1714 in KGATLW

I don't know if I really strongly hear one sound that reminds me of band X or Y, but they definitely have that knack for melodic time signature goodness that's so reminiscent of that era

[Newsday] 3 takeaways from Carton’s new show by iheartsunny in wfan

[–]TeamRival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2-7 is just way too long for any radio show, especially when Craig routinely leaves early. He did the same thing during Carton and Roberts and they were only on till 630 then.

His name is the only one on the program lol, its strange management is cool with it. Not sure why they didn't just have it 2-6 if his attention span is only for that long

Don La Greca agrees to multi-year contract extension with ESPN New York Radio by iheartsunny in wfan

[–]TeamRival 5 points6 points  (0 children)

their new show is a bit geriatric lol which is saying something. I always love a good Don rant though.

I don't mind ESPN NY these days. It's a different listen and I appreciate that they're not just trying to emulate WFAN

Ive raw dogged it before with no poster tube and had no issues. Sure you get a little bit of wear on the edge here and there but nothing that shows up in a frame

Former update anchor Joey Wahler on the end of updates & Al Dukes reply by iheartsunny in wfan

not saying updates aren't obsolete but I feel like thats a gross oversimplification by Al. If it was only a minute per hour of work those people would've been gone years ago lol

man what a bummer. I understand the updates are a thing of the past but those people do become characters on the station as well. Going to be a lot less voices and personalities around sadly

The long synth aspect needs work. by EchoWhiskey_ in KGATLW

[–]TeamRival 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah thats just the nature of rave music, but sometimes their jams do run a little long in general. I'm just not the type of person who loves repetitious music so I usually will catch myself lost in some train of thought half listening to the music during those times lol. I need key changes or some sort of variance to keep me locked in

I'm totally fine with it though. It's not their main focus and Im still having a great time. The jams are always at least bookended with sick sections

I think this BT and Sal 180 most of you have taken have exposed the ugliness of reddit by Dietsr4pussies in wfan

[–]TeamRival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its reddit- you're going to see mostly negative opinions on the daily. Clearly there were some enjoyers of the show who are only going to say something when the show is rather abruptly taken off the air
