@Afterego care that if you do many calibrations he goes crazy and then costs him to return to his normal life.Look good that you really have more flat readings when calibrating

If it has happened to me before, so I let it accommodate alone but today I have had to guide myself with the capillary more than usual.
The calibrations is a pain could already do as well as with free freestyle that does not require calibration.
Likewise, the alarms are not priced, I have them configured in 100 Low because I immediately put in 78 and the high in 180 in 180 it gives me to correct.
Greetings and thanks
@Afterego to us has happened to us.My son's previous sensor was not going well and indeed a few days later the transmitter warned that he was in the last.
Now that the new transmitter has, not only the measurements are re -adjusted but also the sensors last longer.

@Afterego do not pay much attention to me but I think I was about € 380 but I am not sure, to see if any partner confirms it to you.

@afterego @jconegar I luckily have not yet had to renew it.I am novel in its use (only since January of this year), but the price sounds like something like what @jconegar
I have found a mail of March 2016 with Novolab where he asked this same question, transmitter price.You are very close, but has changed, the price of the G4 transmitter is:
"The spare transmitter costs 338.00 euros + 10% VAT. In the event that you acquired a sensor subscription, a 10% discount on the transmitter would be made on this price."
8 weeks with the same sensor
I'm going to tell you my experience with a G4 lent to my endocrine ... I changed my lantus for the Tresiva and after a very fat scare I told my endocrine that I wanted to return to the lantus and I offered to leave me a G4 to control myself.I went to the educator who is dedicated to it, here in Valencia, and we stayed to return to 14 days to take it out.As I had read, here in the forum, which could be taken without problems for 3 weeks I went to take it out at 14 days and after connecting it to the computer and seeing graphics they asked them to leave me another week, to what they agreed.We always talked about the same sensor, just two days before going back I fell and broke a leg so I called to tell them that this week I couldn't take it ... the educator told me that since they had no more sensors and she lefton vacation that will take him to the hospital when he could ...
And that's how I get the sensor for 8 weeks ...
After the third week, as I did not trust so much, I half capillary 4 times a day and although it is true that sometimes there were oscillations of 20 or 30 to enter the sensor and the capillary in general was going well ... only once I founda difference of 50.During this time he told me about several hypos and as an anecdote say that the next day he gave it a hiccup ...
When I activate the sensor for the eighth time, it was when we started doing strange things and appearing the 3 ???And it was when I decided to take it away, but it has been 8 weeks of almost correct measurements ... It should not say that I had to change the adhesional aposty several times.
Before the eighth week I only got 3 ???Once, the rest restarted and follow.It is clear that I have endured it so much because I had no other to replace it, but it has far exceeded the average duration ...
Now that I have taken the plaster to go to the hospital to return it ...
Greetings, Rafa
Courage with that leg Rafa1959!I'm glad you had a good experience with the MCG.My record is 45 days with a sensor, yes I am very demanding, as long as it is not very fine.It is very important to calibrate when glucose is stable, straight arrow (variation less than 5) and even better if the variation between points is 0 or 1. that is the key for adjusted values ... as calibers going down or uploading zassss te te te teosYou load it until you gauge several times more.
Do you know if there is any way of knowing what is left of life for the transmitter?

Hello, fer:
I am thinking of acquiring a Dexcom and I am liating me seeing all the information on the Internet about this product.
Can you shower with him?
How long do the sensors last?
Is it compatible with bathing in the pool and the beach?
Have you noticed a difference between normal and this meters?
Where do you buy the sensors?Why in Novalab it is very expensive, as I see ...
I am a bit new in the forum and I do not know how they are sent private, but I would like to talk to you to guide me all the doubts I have, since you took time with this device.
Thank you very much in advance.
All the best,

What I have watched is that the more stable you are the more they last me, how much I have a week of seeing that you go down-red-corriges-lows and thus making peaks, the sensor fails

do you know if there is any way of knowing what is left of life for life?From what I remember, in the XBRIDGE project document (Xbridge2.pdf) the protocol between G4 and XDrip transmitter is explained.The transmitter itself, in addition to sending in the data package, the level of glucose, the noise of the data, also sends the battery that you have left.That is why we can see in the XDrip app, within options, this value.
I see right now in my XDrip App that I have the value "217 - OK" with about 6 months of use.From what I have been able to investigate, this number will go down.Approximately 210 will remain a few weeks of life and with 190 already a few days.The number begins to lower faster when approaching 200.
The XDRIP app itself must give a notice when the end this next to order a new one.
I think this number cannot be seen in the official G4 receiver, only in the XDRIP app.In the official receiver I think only OK or not ok battery is seen.
In what number are you and with how much transmitter time?

That is, this is the info that I have pointed out:
The Developers are Working On It
- APPARENTLY THE NUMBER WILL DECREE RAPIDLY AFTER AROUND 211/212.
The Dexcom Receiver Will Probabry Tell You to Change The Transmitter When the Number Is 208/209
This can Happen in a Few Weeks Time.216 Should Be a New Transmitter.
We Put The "Low/Rather Low" Threshold at 210 and the "Empty/Vary Low" Threshold at 207.
207 is The Value, The Dexcom Receiver Alarms (According to My Rep, One Week to Go, But Didn's Last That Long)I have it in 216 and I activated it in February.
I have it in 212.And I activate it I don't remember I don't have the head to think.
Thank you very much for the information, I will put when I run out, I will try to do the Herman Monster operation with the issuer.

Mine are in the last too, I will ask for a new one shortly, but I will also try to do the operation: D
We will see how the operation looks, if someone is good to notify
