QUESTION SENSORS

Very good!!

I'm having a lot of problems with the sensors... the truth is that they were never good for me, but they help me prevent hiccups.But I've been there for a while...puffff...4 sensors in 9 days.

The question is about the latter: I bled a lot when putting it on.The blood came out of the little hole in the middle of the sensor, the free 2. I soaked two curious pieces of cotton.It cleaned and came back out, it even stained the applicator inside and out (I have photos but I'm afraid to post them 🙈).It was at night.It seemed like I had stopped bleeding when I went to bed, but in the morning my sheets were stained, and then I didn't see anything else all day.The fact is that he is measuring me very low, it does not exceed 100.

Is it normal to bleed so much with a sensor?Has it ever happened to anyone?

If the measurements don't improve tomorrow I will change it...but I don't know if having bled like that it will be in a good place (which is where it always is: on the back of the arm 🤷🏻‍♀️)and that may be the reason why it measures so completely wrong... I don't even know what to do... I have a big bruise on my arm... Anyway... thank you for reading this far.All the best!!

Only with one sensor did I get blood from the hole.

But not as much as you.The sensor was stained, I cleaned it and looked closely, in case the data was strange.That didn't happen.

I have never had bruises.Neither with the sensor nor with punctures.

Bleeding that much is definitely not normal. Usually, there’s just a tiny bit of blood when inserting it.Plus, the readings staying below 100 are probably linked to this heavy bleeding and the sensor not being in the right spot.

In three years the bleeding has only happened to me once, I cleaned it a little and the sensor was fine for 14 days.

I only bled with two in the gluteus and curiously they were the ones that measured the best.I thought it had gone to a capillary glass and that's why it was so complete.

Normally there is no heavy bleeding.

I put one on my leg, the one before this round, and I still have the wound...I always heal very quickly, but this wound has me scared...and the sensor stopped working 4 days before, I said it was for safety reasons...🤷🏻‍♀️ The measurements were the same as on the arms (regular) so I didn't get any more complicated.

Ugh, 4 sensors in 9 days sounds very frustrating. I've also had some bleeding from my sensors before, but never this much. That low reading could totally be due to the bleeding affecting it.

I had once bled a little and I only saw it when I removed it, this one was a bit scandalous.I already removed it because nothing, it didn't work...

Thanks for responding

Well, two fingers under the elastic

Nothing, this one didn't work, I removed it.The highest number he gave me was 76 🙄...anyway... About the bruises, I went to the infirmary at the health center and the nurse told me that some of us get bruises and others don't 🤷🏻‍♀️...it's what it is...
