Dexcom G4 - Everything you need to know
01/02/2013 3:16 p.m.
I have two sensors on my arm and it is great, the first lasted 36 days and the second 28, so we are very happy.
Also in the arm you can protect it with a sleeve, which is not in the belly, I think that helps to last so much.
Thanks for the tips, especially @jconegar who encouraged me to try in my arm.
Greetings to all.
@Brenda thanks to you from heart for telling me that it was better in your arm.I am a lot to have been able to help you.I only say what is doing well although not always to all of us.

I have read in another post to @Arotorias to say that it carries it on the lower back, and I would like to know how it goes there.I take it in gluteo and the truth is that very happy.Now in summer I have noticed less duration, maybe it is for sweat.
By the way I was in Budapest this vacation and spent a day in his spas to soak (and when I say one day, I say more than 8 hours) and I have to say that he behaved great, when he left the water and connect he worked to the thousand wonders.
On the lower back it goes well, but to know which site you are best to try.Where I last the most is in my arm, but here we have a partner who carries him in his belly and lasts up to 5 weeks

I take it there because it is a place where it does not bother me to do any sport, including contact sports.Also there I can hide it with short sleeve and short pants.And incidentally, I see it least and I least find out that I carry it.
In summer they are also lasting less, just over three weeks.Before summer I was taking 4 weeks.
I am not sure where I have read it, but I have ever read that Dexcom G4 is no longer sold, this is not correct.
This morning a friend has made the entrance for a Dexcom G4.You can still buy without any problem.

In the USA no longer sold (it is not for some time on the web, and for people who had it in guarantee, they sent receptors already repaired -when they were manufactured they were new -).
Here a friend wanted to buy it (and that I insisted on G4) and "sold" never better, the G5.
Did you buy a full G4 kit?Or do you mean that you bought a G4 transmitter?(The transmitter for now, fixed that is sold).
greetings
PUBLIRREPORTAJES NO¡¡¡
Well, I hope you continue to sell it for a while, it seems to me that in three months the change will touch, I do not know if to buy it already to ensure, they will not withdraw it without prior notice
@Pabloj2000 here in Spain the complete initial kit, and come on, they did not have to insist, they have offered him the G4 and the G5, I speak with me and I told him to ask the G4.
You already know what noses the mother house has to take the decision of not selling it there and that in Europe if, these people have very strange politicians.

The issue is that they are selling the manufacturing surpluses that have left the G4 (sensors, transmitters and receivers) and when they finish them "if I have seen you do not remember" and you go to the G5 if or if or they will continue to manufacture them...
If they do that in Europe it seems to me a suicide, many cannot pay the G5 even if we want.We would move to free.
@Arotorias, the only reason why I would continue to produce the G4 is because it is integrated with the bomb that carries @jconegar I think I remember but since you commented here one day the European market brings it a bit to the pairo not ..??
@sigsauer if that is why I think that a year and a half or two may last the G4 we have nothing to do with the others

Now in October he will do a year that I have been the G4 and does not cool anything to read that news that if he stops selling, etc., it has been the solution to my dowers, I hope it is not so and we can continue with him, but as he says @Artorias I would be one of those who would have to move free or insist on my educator to put the Medtronic bomb with her meter who says that I have denied him for now a couple of times, because really the G4 is an economic effort is an economic effortFor many of us.
By the way, in terms of the position of my last two patches this summer, they have been at the top of the gluteArm is the most durable), but because I have gone with clothing rather loose, because as soon as I have put on jeans or more tight pants it has begun to fail with ???, even with the icon of the sand watch.I took my jeans and worked well again.So gluteo proven, but discarded: P

They don't care in the sense that they don't seek to be more accessible to the customer to expand market.But even make a lot of money.
Forcing to use the G5 is even worse for them, they will make less money than they do now, at least in "poor" countries like Spain.

When the Dexcom is pressed, it gives errors, it usually happens sometimes when sleeping supported on it, errors in readings and questions are more frequent, why?Well, no idea, it will be that the filament becomes nervous.
It happens to me like you, in the back I lasted about three weeks at most did not arrive (I did not carry tight jeans, hahahaha, they would not look very good) and in my arm I usually go 4 weeks or once one dayor two more.

What part of the arm do you put it?It sounds to me to have seen a video of @jconegar but I do not remember where it was put if on the side like the free or in the rear.It will be a matter of trying to see how it works
@enriquec here you have the video do not stop to to be in your arm

Thanks @jconegar we will try to see how of the 23 days we do not spend in the belly
18 days and today I remain without a signal the Dexcom for half an hour and last night a couple of hours ?????
While sleeping, surely about him.
Could it be that the filament has become nervous?he he.
Until now an average of 21 days but once I have been lucky and 26 days.
