Where do you buy the physio tapes? Online?It is that with the spadrapo it takes a lot and touches me in the mid -life of the sensor to cover it again ...

Hello!!Iago also sometimes put the physio tape making a cut, I explain: we measure the sensor and cut the tape to make a hoop that covers the edges of the sensor, because I was afraid that if the tape takes time to dry the sensora lot of wet time.It gives us good result and does not take off.
The tape is bought in the pharmacy, if they ask you what color I gave that it is indifferent or the color that your child likes that is the one that will carry it.I do not remember how much it costs but it is a large roll that lasts a lot: -H

So that tape let's say it is like a cloth swing but more resistant and elastic, but it gets wet the same by what I read.I first put Fixomull and then the tape but now in winter or leave it alone with Fixomull or try that ... I will tell you.
Thanks for your advice !!

Well, I wear the whole summer with the sensor in the buttock, covered with tape and do not sing.I have spent summer on the beach and pool in addition to the daily showers.None has fallen, the tape has cost it and they always measure me between 15-20 below the capillary.

Ponte Fixomull or Kinesiotope reinforced with liquid skin tac and it will be quite difficult for you to take off but if you take off you put another layer on top and reach 14 days without any problem.

I have been using it on my arm since February without any problem.Until the last one I put on, it hurt me when placing it and began to bleed a lot, clean the blood and it is the one that I brought right now, but I have a pain in that area.Something has happened to someone.

Where they say: back of the biceps.This last week, the alarms for hypo have woke up with me coinciding that I was asleep on that side.It was to change position and raise the glucose and consequently get out of the hicf without the need of anything else.

Has it happened to you?

Of course, it is a classic.By crushing the interstitial fluid does not reach the sensor and low glucose sensor.As soon as you release it already measures well.

@Arse: Yes, a classic that wakes you every time you crush it.This week I have disconnect the alarm to let me sleep.It is the most serious defect that I see the sensor.I hope Freestyle 3 works better.

Well, in my case, as if to put it in gluteo, I sleep up.And see that every time I play, I'm tempted to place it there.Seen what was seen, discarded.

On the other hand today something curious has happened to me: in Free, the indication the sensor has been exhausted.Sensor failure.And on the other in Diabox it continues to provide data and tells me that the life of the Sendor is 10.8 days.
For now I will not change it, of course.But I understand less and less

Diabox always gives me I think it's 14 hours more than the official app.And I take advantage of them, of course.
But if the sensor fails, I call to replace me.

Hello, I have taken it in the abdomen, in the upper part of the thigh and in the triceps of the arm, as recommended.
Undoubtedly the most exact results are the arm, even if it is the most uncomfortable place.Depending on the person, in other areas the fat layer can affect the readings, also the quality of blood circulation.
Each one has to risk, if he wants and see what happens.Eye in some areas, due to blood circulation and diffusion in interstitial fluid, it can work well when you move, but give high errors if you are stretched, sleeping or simply sitting.You have to keep all that in mind and after trying to decide, but always checking results with hair reading.My experience tells me that otherwise it works quite well normally, but that it can give you scares (important errors) at some point, and that is dangerous.For example have a hiccup sleeping and not find out.They are experiences and opinions, nothing scientific.

What catches my attention is what you say about changing it, not for comfort, but because everyone plays the sensor and wants to tear it out.

I have taken it for a long time, I go to the gym to train with him and in summer I am always seen, and not only that nobody touches it, they do not even tell me anything or mention it today.At first a gym companion asked me how it worked and little else.

Moreover, if a stranger comes and try to tear it away, I start my head later.
