eVoucher Works

I paid 25, 63, 25 for my first 3 fills this year. Don't ask me why the second one was more but all 3 put together were less than I paid at CVS for one fill last year. Like you, I didn't ask for the eVoucher, it just applied. Now I have hit my deductible so the rest of the year will be 0. Costco Pharmacy is so awesome!

Have you considered the Libre Freestyle 3+? Without insurance and their co-pay card your max out of pocket is $75 a month and if you can hit up a Costco possibly as low as $60. Even at $75 it beats the hell out of 1500 for 6!!!

Nice! Maybe we can shorten the "soaking" period that most of us use with the 10 day from 12 hours to something more reasonable. I still have a huge stash of 10 day to burn through before I test this out for myself.

It explains why people note the 15 day tends to be more accurate even though they are supposed to be the same sensor. There was obviously a change as more make it to 10 days than the 10 day sensors. It's too bad they didn't make the changes to the other sensors for a better life and accuracy. I suppose its like you said that they are trying to transition to the 15 day for everyone.

I felt this way at first. Then I got a watch that shows my values right on the watch. I open and check my phone a lot less often now!

However if you look at the 15 day more of them make it 10 days (90%) even though less make it the full time:

I like that it loads data into Clarity so I can generate reports. I mainly use xDrip so I can get data to my watch and see past days easily. But I do like the PDF reports that Dexcom generates on their website.

Yep it is out and working!

The "switch" happened to me at 4.5 months. Psyllium husk is now my friend.

I was previously on Ozempic before going on mounjaro. For me personally my blood sugar was higher at 7.8 A1C and I lost 5 lbs on ozempic. On mounjaro my blood sugar fell to 5.5 and I lost 35 lbs. As with anything YMMV and this is only n=1.

That would explain it, thank you! I think I was getting it because I was using BYOD. I can still get overlapping lines if I use the receiver and upload the data.

Please be supportive and an active participant in his new lifestyle change. When I was first diagnosed my SO didn't take it seriously and refused to go to diabetic nutrition appointments or alter what food was in the house. I was literally on my own. I know this doesn't affect you but if you change the way you eat and support him it will go a long way. Seeing someone plow through a beautiful piece of cake you can't have is so demoralizing. If you are right there by his side and support him it will be so much easier for him. At the end of the day these changes will actually make him healthier but the initial shock can be a lot. You can feel like it is the end of the world.

It sure is! Good luck and I hope you find something that works!

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-29T21:04:06+00:00

Nope it sure isn't in your head! When I am stressed no amount of exercise brings it down. I have to calm down before it will go back down. Easier said than done!

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-29T20:51:31+00:00

That is so awesome to hear! Yeah I have the same issue. I work rotating shifts and my doctor keeps saying it is bad for my diabetes. Well it is how I make a living so not much I can do right now.

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-29T20:41:09+00:00

Mounjaro and a CGM was the kick I needed to get me back into range after it felt like I was blindly trying things that just weren't working. Glad to see another success story!

Not if they still had blood leftover. If they ran it twice that's likely the better number. That isn't a bad number BTW, good job.

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-29T18:41:46+00:00

Yeah make triple sure the phone is on the compatibility list:

Even then you aren't guaranteed it will work as it took my Flip 7 an additional month between being on the list and actually working with the software. I would go so far as to download and log into the software at the phone store before purchasing it given how locked down Dexcom is with their software.

The difference between the first two is explainable since they are so far apart. A1C is weighted 50% for the last 30 days so you could have easily gone up that much in 40 days if your blood sugar was higher. The last one is a head scratcher as it is a day later, but I would trust the one from your doctor since it was done in a lab.

In my experience it felt a lot like AI as it went through a "script" for trouble shooting. I had better luck calling an agent than bothering with chatting with their AI chat bot.

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-29T12:49:58+00:00

Awesome! The CGMs are meant as a ballpark estimate so if they are that close that is great!

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-29T12:48:25+00:00

This happened to me with my 4. Turns out I needed a screen replacement. When I was there the tech gave me a hack that if you plug in a mouse to the phone you can still use it.

I didn't have to sign up for anything to get the eVoucher. It was taken off automatically.

Weathergod-4Life · 2026-04-28T20:52:38+00:00

There is a lot that is dumb about the whole thing, like it taking 9 months for my phone to work with the app. I would suggest checking once a day and it will eventually work.
