Dexcom G4 - Everything you need to know

DiabetesForo's profile photo   01/02/2013 3:16 p.m.

The Dexcom's apartment measures 7x5, so you have to take the 10x12'5 and trim because the smallest size is the same measures as the Dexcom Apity, I let it protrude about 2 cm on each side more or less.
If the Skin Tac only sells Novalab, if they are already going to bring you the Dexcom take advantage and ask at the same time, I think it was € 16 and do not pay the
You will see that change of being with Dexcom always knowing how you are blindly elucidating or walking by clicking every half hour, you will like it !!

Thank you very much Gala.

The truth is that the Dexcom in the end I get more than anything for work, it is very responsibility, and I do not want to have to always be over 150 to be sure that I will not have a hypoglycemia.

Surely knowing at all times how you are provides a lot of peace of mind, and I can adjust the level of glucose and walk lower both to do sports and to work and sleep.I will lower hemoglobin a barbarity.

I join what Gala says, the Dexcom is an improvement in the quality of life!The Skin Tac box has wipes to stop a train, it is certainly a good investment.

are you talking about Hydrofilm, right?
It is the one that I use and I am phenomenal, apart from the fact that it endures me more, the skin does not irritate anything, they use it in the hospital for babies so that is already significant and it is very easy to put, you do not walk touching the glueFrom the dressing or wrinkles you, I am myth happy, the only price, which spent an Adi paste than if we now get more cheaper.
THANK YOU MONICA !!!!

Nooo the hydrophilm is the one I used next to the Skin Tac, but I will change it for this, for now it is surprising me, the bad since I have it and how it endures !!!!!!!

Well yes!!!The hypos that were inadvertent are already history !!, the hyper are also much more controlled.The problem is that I don't know how long we can keep it, but hey, it is better not to think about that and "enjoy" the Dexcom
Thank you very much for your interest !!!!: D

That's what is it, that you have left us halfway
I do not see another in Latinadiabets that is not the hydrofilm (I enter from the mobile, the page does not open well)

They are seeing to bring it, they want to make sure it is good before bringing it.This trade for what I see is very clear that it does not sell to sell.It shows that diabetes runs for their blood too.I don't know the really name, in your store it sounds like I saw it but without having stocks yet.I imagine that when they are sure that it goes to the hair they will bring it.But for now I am very happy, today another two -hour training on the road bike at 30 degrees, imagine if I have sweated.

Hello everyone.

I just acquired the Dexcom a week and I have several doubts:

1) How is the traffic/receiver calibrates to last another week?
2) Has anyone managed to settle the NIGTHSCOUT program and to work? Is it free?

Thank you so much.

I can only help you in the restart of the sensor.
It is very simple, when they have a few hours, it will notify you, when you already get out "End of sensor" you simply go to the menu, start sensor and that's it, then the same as at the beginning, it will take 2 hours to work and then ask you doublecalibration

I have to change the Dexcom sensor (it already gives erroneous values ​​and ???) and on Friday I have to make a wrist resonance
Do you know if it would be enough to take off my trensmitter or do I also have to take off my sensor?Is that of course they are cheap ..
I think it would be enough with the transmitter because everything is plastic only the thread that we carry inside is metal and is minimal and taking into account that there are many people who carry implants and do not have to remove them to become a resonance ...
What do you think ??

Good morning I think that if, with removing the transmitter it would be enough because it is the only thing that emits via Bluetooth signals, you should ask you himself in case, not?
The magnetic fields are very strong.
He has not said where you carry the sensor, luck and that everything goes well with that, then you tell us.
A year ago I had a strong fall and pain in the hip and I also made a full body, the phobia that gave me was aquonant but in the end Naaahh we are going to put you music and do not even find out and in 15 MINS outside and the result and the resultBetter impossible, all good although two by three the muscle pain that attacks the Ciatico nerve has me badly.
greetings.

As I ask, they make me fixed, that they cure in health!

Hi @gala, I took it from you, I copy you what Dexcom's saying in their recommendations for use and I also copy the link.

The receiver, the transmitter and the Dexcom G4 Platinum sensor should be removed before undergoing a magnetic resonance technique by images (RMI), to a computerized axial tomography (TAC) or a diathermic treatment.The Dexcom G4 Platinum system has not been tested during the realization of an image magnetic resonance, a computerized axial tomography or a diathermic treatment, so it is unknown if safety or performance complications can arise.
