Well, in 4 years I have lost 3, 2 per door, 1 per kayak.
I am careful when I get my pants whether I carry it in the buttock and in the leg.But it is where it is sure, you get used to you right away.I also protect it in case I am not so careful with clothes.
It measures quite well.
I have consultation in April and my endo will give them to me in then and without charlita;In fact, I explain to them Trucos del Free, I doubt that they force me to attend for use.

That is .. is that my skin irritates me when about three or four day the kinesiological, so I changed to Tegardem, since being a product in non -allergic theory and that it is used even in hospitals I thought I would do better.My skin irritates me too.

The tegaderm is not doing well, it is a liquid under patch, before placing it, lexeme or peitel type in soluc, it carries some corticosteroid and the same does not irritate you so much.Let's see if he writes a father, I know there are parents who put their children different dressings for allergies or irritations.

@cuasy

There are many types of kinesiologies.I had a lot of allergy to the Abbott sensor but the tapes never gave me problems.The truth is that Tegaderm put it on me to protect myself from the sensor.But each skin is a world.You can try to change brand.Another option: 3M transport tape.It is pierced transparent and sticks like a demon.It never gave me allergy.

All the best

I do not put a piece on top of the other, I take it away and put another one, carefully, holding so that it does not leave, normally the tape lasts a week without detachment so I only have to change it once.

Well, I do put on a piece on the part that rises because I see that if I try to take off the tape with a hand, I will take the sensor.
This last time is a record.I put the sensor last Friday, the previous one, we have been with the same tape for 12 days.And I swam several days.
The difference is that other times I have cut it smaller.This time I cut it bigger.A small part took off, I cut it and there the rest is still.A single piece and after 12 days for the first time ✌
I put the photo

The sensor can be read up to 4 cm of layers.In winter I read it through the feathers and thick sweaters underneath.

If it does not work it is because it has failed.My last two have killed 4 days to change them.
