Hello again to all.
They just changed Dexcom G6 to G7 and I am very worried.
To start they did not give us any type of training, they told me that the applicator only changed ... after a few weeks I do not agree.The first sensor I had to remove 4 days before it ended since my arm hurt a lot (I probably did something wrong, but to know).This second sensor seems that in that sense it is going well, it does not produce any discomfort.However, the numbers are nothing consistent.With both sensors I have had to check with the glucometer several times a day because it does not give one (differences of more than 200 and without any constancy).To start, it is absurd to have a sensor and be checking every two by three with the capillary and second, in Social Security they already told me at the time that they cut the tap tap, it gives me ashamed to have to go and tell them that now I needfurther.With the G6 I barely had problems and now ...
Does anyone have the G7 and have happened to you?Any advice?
Thanks in advance.

But don't be like that.Present yourself in the outpatient and show them what happens differences of 200 are a risk.That is why you return to the strips.
Maybe it is necessary to calibrate it, but that they put you reliable, at least.

Have you calibrated them with glucometer measurements?I do not have the 7, but with the One+ I spend the first two days having to calibrate it several times, then the truth is that it is going well.

Thanks for answering!In the end I went to my health center and gave me more strips ... less bad.Yes, I've been calibrating it, but it hasn't worked.You must have some trick.With the G6 it worked to calibrate it 2 times in a row, but now it does not leave you.
In case the same thing happens to someone: I was looking for information on Facebook pages and it turns out that it is quite common for the G7 not to end up well.The solution that some users have found is to insert the sensor a minimum of 2h before it expires, come on, what many people do with the free.I have not tried it yet.Now with the next one I will see how.But for now, the numbers are being a bit lottery.
