Good morning to everyone.
My question is:
Where can I place the sensor?
Do you take it in another area of ​​the body that works well ???
Thank you

I spent months studying that body area did not press overnight.And in my case as I never sleep face down was the swamp.I carry it there.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?

In the buttock, 2 fingers under the elastic underwear.It measures well and is discreet.

Thank you.
Sherpa41, Diabestic, Ruthbia.
Both in the calf and in the upper area of ​​the buttock, I see that to sleep it will continue to cause me problems.
I had thought about the chest area, but I don't know what to do.

I sleep with the crushed sensor and it doesn't give me false data.I have been like this for 8 years and has never given me false hypoglycemia.

My theory is that being the biggest buttock than the arm the pressure on the sensor is lower, having more surface.

I take it right and I am doing well!In the hospital they suggested in the inner face of the arm to avoid that of crushing, in terms of results it has been better, but I can't stand it.

Well, in the buttocks it gives me allergy, it fills me with granites and it bites me to rage.
On the inner face of the arm I was doing well but I hiking and with my backpack I brushed me.
Total, return to the classic ...

I also carry it in the buttock and I do not give me faults hypoglycemia for crushing.In addition, I think it is the most discreet area, where it is more protected and nothing bothers me.In summer, it is covered by the bikini, and I do not have to worry.

I have proven that false hypos are not to press/crush the sensor on a frontal way, but to do it laterally.That is, if pressures uniformly on the sensor does not give hip, the problem is that if you press it only on the one hand the filament inside the body must be folded or lose contact with the body and gives false hypos.I carry it in my arm because I am quite stable and at night I disable the alarms, but it makes sense that in the buttocks not of hypos although you sleep by pressing it because it is difficult for you to get on side.

In winter I carry it in the arm, to the classic, and now in summer that the most visible arms are put in the buttock as I learned here in the forum, it is very comfortable too.

I also know about a girl who put it in her leg, about four fingers below the groin, it has to be easy to put it, but I have not tried it yet.And what surprised me is to read here about the calf, curious place: P

I do not try for fear that it does not work ... in my health center the sensors are scarce ... but I would like to try in the buttock.Doesn't it bother you ...?Don't you get hooked with your pants when you sit down and get up?Or with the rubber of underwear ...?

Jo, on top of the buttocks it seems to me an ideal place.But I put it there once and, as I do Pilates, I almost gave me something in the first class.We made many abdominals and it stuck and hurt me like never before.
In the end I had to remove and put back on my arm.

In my case it was until I got the point.In the buttock I almost forget that I carry it.Look, I carry it right in this area (the red point):

@Silviagrz I just 2 fingers under the rubber of the panty.I don't find out.Of course at first, be careful when going up and down, now I don't think about it.I do it for inertia.

I tried it a day, but I gave me an error as soon as I put it, I did not make the scanner and it was well placed and how the sensors are scarce in the health center, I do not finish being clear where you put it, on one side according to the photo?

In my ass I have just put it once, I had no problems, but it is more comfortable in my arm.
Yesterday, I put it in my ass again, I hope I do well and do not take it ahead when I remove my clothes.
