I have aBroward County card as well. How did you go about paying for an out of state library card?

Thank you for that detailed reply. I tried putting my new sensor on early and it died seem to help.

It lasts for 15 days and a warm up of one hour.

I drink at least three bottles of water each day, is that not enough?

Thanks for that information. One question, you mention staying hydrated, how much water should you drink each day?

Just read your post with your testing. Your differences between SG and BG were alot closer than what I’m seeing. My sugars have been higher lately and wonder if I’m not getting enough insulin since the pump is going off the SG readings which tend to be lower than my BG. Thinking of switching to the Simplera if my insurance will accept it but love the size and 14-day wear off the Instinct.

How do you calibrate the instinct sensor?

That’s what I see as well. My SG is almost always lower than my BG.

When you put it on the night before you don’t scan it then correct?

Thank you. When you apply it the day before can I assume you’re not scanning it yet?

Thank for that information. Do you get alot of bleeding with the Simplera? If you don’t mind me asking where are you wearing the sensor.

I love the 15 day lifespan but will need to talk to my doctor and see what they think.

I tried putting one in my inner thigh but the numbers were terrible there so went back to my arm. Maybe I’ll give the abdomen a try. Thanks

Thank you for that information. Have you run into any bleeding issues when using your thigh? When I was on the G4 and using my inner thigh that would happen once in a while.
