Hello,
For a series of reasons, I can't place the sensor on my arm, I have read that there are people who put it in the gut and buttocks, can you tell me what area and how is it going?
Thanks! Greetings to all.
How is a sensor placed in the buttock?

@"Dido" I alternate between left arm (external and internal part), gut (left and right) and buttock (in the area closest to the waist) and in all places I do well and without great differences and that which is whatI put a dressing below to avoid irritation.I also tell you that I put it the night before the sensor that I wear.

I put it in gluten for a couple of months and I am delighted.I plant it where intramuscular injections are put on the buttocks.Divide this into four and in the upper left area if it is the left buttock and in the upper right area if it is the right buttock, I do not know if I have explained.That's where I put it but there will be a thousand places safer.

In the buttock for 2 years .... 2 fingers below the rubber of the panty.
It measures great but you have to put it 30 hours before activating it with stable blood glucose

I don't finish understanding that you have to put it 30 h before activating it, what sensor do you mean?

Freestyle.I wear it day and a half before activating it.30 hours.

I wear it the night before, that is, 8 hours and I do well, the 30 hours is reflected in some prospect or somewhere ...?In fact, theoretically, there is no need to put it before, all this are theories and evidence that we have done.-
I take it on the side of the thigh, and it measures me great.:)>-
The problem of the legs, at least in my case and I imagine that in most men, they are the hairs and I do not feel like making my wax to put on a sensor.-)
@"sigsauer", no wax is needed, stop your machinilla .., which is the easiest

Does the sensor in gluteo + pool do well?
I did a test once, at the beginning everything went from Fabula, but when going to the pool and being in the water (let's put an hour of bathing + sensor at a meter of profuncity more or less) to the freestyle sensor was completelyThe clamp, when I returned home marked normal (96) I started to dinTake it with the capillary and the scare was brutal, a level of sugar of 346 and climb ... I had to put on more insulin and go for a walk because that rose to 400 and had no intention of stopping.So I had to discard an almost new sensor and uncertainty if freestyle is valid for pool:/
I am on the beach and without problems, he has never given them to me.The prospect says that it cannot be more than 1 meter deep.Swimming you are not at that depth ... Diving is something else.
8 hours, 30 hours ... is experience.The last one I had 10 hours and has failed without reading.Error 368 After 2 hours of reading not available, wait 10 min.They change it to me.

@"Regina" for a lot of machinilla that passes me, in 14 days and quite before the hair begins to come out and with the sensor stuck that itches that it fucks so I prefer a place with free hair !!!
Hello.I use freestyle and the truth is that I am very "obedient."I have not dared to put it in another place other than the arms because I read a year ago (surely in this forum) that there were people who put it in another place.I called Abbott to consult him and they told me that there was only evidence of his arm effectiveness ... My conclusion: that I did not risk.But of course ... reading you, I want to try
Good to everyone, the same happens to me, I always put it in my arm for not risking but now in summer, and after seeing your comments Tb makes me want to try.

It is totally understandable, they are € 60 and nobody likes to throw them in the trash ... but this is a bit like diabetes, test and error, if we never try we will come out of doubts.
I almost put them in the rest of the sites (gut, ass) than in the arm, in fact, in my arm I am now putting it on the internal part than on the external and in the leg I do not put it forThe hair roll, of course, placed the previous night to remove the one that expires and perfectly protected with kinesiotope.-
@"Rosanriv" Abbott does not ask for photos of the sensor, if there are problems, we always take it in the arm and perfectly placed;They are quite bleeding already !!!

I will try then.This morning I put on the new one.For the next one I will try elsewhere (legs or ass, because the belly I have more crushed in insulin).I'll tell you!
That always ... when I call, I always take it where they indicate ... in the arm but 2,5 years ago I have been in the buttock.
The one I have now has a difference with the capillary of 1mg/dl .... Fantastic.Too bad it lasts only 14 days.
The one who broke did not touch the water.I put it at night and activate it in the morning.It cost me a lot to put it, I didn't click the applicator, then it seemed to take off when the applicator was removed.I fixed it well with adhesive, activated it and at 60 min started with errors.I already have the replacement.
