I use it two years ago, I put it on the arm and up a hypoallergenic tape, that makes you go through a frame or something does not start.

In my thigh like @rafach, what is very important for my experience and I always do it is to place Skintac and Tegaderm, since I never have taken off any and work well.

I at the top of the gluteo.I find it very comfortable (in summer the Vikini covers it) and I did not take it ahead with the doors or bag frames.In addition, the best of all is that I have proven that the measurements are very accurate.

in the buttock where best !!

A place where neither Abbott ni Dexcom recommends?Meh.

I don't care if they do not recommend it, it gives me many times the same measure as the capillary, in my arm I took it very at the beginning and measured badly and fell

No. They recommend it because the study has only been done in an arm but does not mean that it does not do well in many other areas.Even many endocrine for arm allergies advise to change to other sites.It gives me almost nailed values ​​with the capillary and in an arm no, apart from that I get hooked with everything, especially in summer with the strips and short sleeves.

I have been 32 consecutive months putting the sensor where the brand advises.Without problems.
There are people "pa to".

Try it and tell us.

The studies are to conclude that by statistics the most reliable place for its correct operation is the one indicated by the manufacturer.

What then does well is another story.For example, in my thigh I am doing well, but does it have to be a very specific area how I put it rather in the lateral area the readings are bad ... and am I going to blame Abbot?If I am placing it where I feel like it?

Hence, among us we help and understand perfectly what you say ... but we must make it clear that we are getting out of the manufacturer's instructions.
