I wanted to tell you a topic, today I have granted the glucose sensor, but I have a small problem ... it turns out that I have the arm area tattooed (in both arms) where it is usually placed, and the tattooed areas cannot be pricked whylipodystrophies can be created.
I wanted to know if any of you have happened to me and what alternative insertion area has used.
In a previous entrance of the forum, I read that someone commented that their son placed it at the top of the buttocks and it was doing very well, but I would like to know some more option, if possible.

Hello!I do not speak for me, but I follow many groups on Facebook and put the sensors everywhere, there are people who put it on the chest!Although that is something that I would never do ...
Personally, I have always taken it in my arms and Dexcom in arms, and gut.I tried one in the upper part of the buttock and another in the lower back but it did not go well, I was disconnected all the time.
On Facebook, a very common place that I have seen with the Free are the thighs, the part that remains on the sides of the body on the outside and the one that remains in the front of the body.They are very happy with that site.In Insta there is a Spanish woman, Ana Trabadelo (@la_Trabadelo), who puts it in that area and is doing well.I have also seen photos of people putting it on the twins, but that also seems a bit beast because in the end it is an area where the skin moves a lot and almost everything is muscle.

hello good ,
As @"niñaburbuja" tells you, they have been tested in more places.
I use it or in the arms or on the thighs (the area imagines where there would be a currency just at the end of the pants pocket ... it would be high and central zone) and people also usually use it in the upper gluteo.

High buttock part.I have been there for 5 years.No problems and good measurements. In the arms they fall with the doors, backpacks, it is an area where we hit ourselves a lot. I have tried in the pants pockets but I like the buttocks more, I find it more comfortable.

I have not noticed anything.I put the slow in the buttock that I do not wear a sensor so broken every 14 days and I avoid lipodystrophies.

I have taken it in the gut (so that I would not be noticed when bikini) and it has done well, although the skin of that area is more sensitive.I also try in the upper buttock.

Before trying alternative methods not officially approved, don't you think it would be a more logical and safe idea to remove tattoos from any of the arms?

The truth is that it is something that I do not contemplate ... First, why I like having them ... and taking off a tattoo is something expensive, painful and in my case they are the two whole arms, which would do the topic totally unfeasible, both economically and aesthetically. Early, apart from what I have been told here, I have to give me a training on the device, so they will tell me. The suggestion is also appreciated.

I always take them in the arm but in the internal part (the one that gives to the side of the gut, I do not know if I explain myself), they told me like that in the hospital the first day, that in the off -arm it was moreEasy start it when hitting with something.Neither bothers me to sleep or take off or anything ...
There are people who wear it on their thigh also without problems.

I think the thing will go between pectoral and upper part of the buttock, if the health personnel do not tell me something different, of course ... After opening this issue in the forum, I remembered that I saw an Instagram stories of a girl whoI inserted it at the top of the chest, and so pancha ... I have written to see if it tells me how it will take it there, although I do not know if you will answer.

Freestyle is indicated to take it on the arm, as it puts it in the instructions.I don't know if health personnel will tell you that you can put it in another place.They are likely not getting wet and they tell you not.

I am left with the fact that there are people who use it in other areas and it works ... few, but there are

@Oskareti to me, the first day they gave it to me in the FJD, the nurse told me that I could also put them on the legs and abdomen, I told him about the buttock and told me that he took note. I have seen it in photos, and on the beach I have seen it in the twin
