Dexcom G4 - Everything you need to know

good:
I am Sonia, the mother of a 13 -year -old girl who is using Dexcom for a year after she has suffered three serious hypoglycemia with hospital admission.In February they are going to put the 640 G bomb. I wrote to the Ombudsman for continuous monitoring to enter Social Security and answered me telling me that there is a study in progress and that results are then known.On the "bearoigo.com" page I have launched a question for Pablo Echenique (which belongs to my community) claiming the same, but I need 49 supports so that the question comes.I would thank you for a hand.

I will not get tired of repeating it: ask the animas Vibe, which is the one that goes with the Dexcom, calls Novalab and eat the situation, they will contact the endocrine to solve the issue.

It is the endocrine that is recommending the 640 g for the interruption in the supply of insulin when a hypo is expected.I already told her that I was very happy with the Dexcom, but she insists that with my daughter's problem the best is that bomb.I don't know if someone who carries it can tell me if he is content.

I have read the occasional opinion about that bomb at the forumof Medtronic

Yes, they have already informed me and that made me a bit back because I trust Dexcom.We will have to get used to Medtronic's.

This is not?supported is.

Another support

And another :)

Be careful with the MCG prices of the 640 g pump, they say K is an annual contract 200 E+VAT and it covers everything but verify the sensors, do not give you for a year and then each box costs a nonsense.Take out of sensors that will be needed, you will have to stretch your life to get to you year but it is difficult to get it

Another support.

I gave him yesterday .. l-)

It costs € 220 with VAT and only last 10 months.The remaining two months € 275 each.It is very expensive.I think that with the Dexcom it does not reach 200 stretching the sensors about 17 days

One more: p

As I fuck me, they deceive us, they told me by phone that it was a contract for one year and everything came in.They have very little shame.It is clear that we are a source of income and continuous deception.

Good to all !!!Well, after much reads last week I decided to acquire the Dexcom G4.
Today I fulfill my first week with him, and for the moment my impressions are very good.The measurements with respect to the glucometer are very accurate especially in values ​​between 70-150, if you are higher I have noticed that it measures something less (about 15-20 of difference).
As for the use of the sensor this week I have gone to the pool and dressing three times as the first day (it protected it with the sample dressing that they sent me of the waterproof IV3000; by the way, do you know if it is sold in pharmacies?)
Although the device is expensive, it seems that it is worth it, because after 15 years, I think that in a week I have learned more than in those 15 years (I will ask you about my nights, that I have inexplicable climbs ...)

It's another life @nacho.You have moved to another world.Not one more hypo in your life.You feel them or not, you won't have what matters.
Congratulations

Well, another support, I had not seen the thread until today

Another support, but I have Medtronic's, the Minimed 640 and I do not recommend it, for my child 6 years, I wish the other could have, there was no option.

I know it is to make it more attractive, my wife is celiac and perhaps poleminizing is excessive, my diabetic child and the truth, Celiaquia is no problem

Jconegar, I already tell you that I have spent another life, it has been a moment that I have started the sensor and I am already missing it in those 2 hours :))
By the way I have restarted it because the week was fulfilled tonight, and I came better now to be controlled after dinner;I have done well right?After week he separates yes or yes, right?This afternoon he told me that he had life for about 6 hours

Today was my mother -in -law's birthday and sinning at the food (included cake) I have not risen 130;I have punctured a couple more units, but without fear of hiccups by the device;This is pleased !!!!
