Novata with Dexcom

Another thing that was forgotten, you have to calibrate also at that time that is altered with the paracetamol?Or is it better not to calibrate it?

hello again!I wanted to ask you something else about Dexcom.I have read that it is altered with Paracetamol, but I cannot take anything more than that as an analgesic.Do you know or have you proven, how long does it take to return to normal?Example taking Paracetamol for a few days.It is for having an orientation.
Thanks!

It is very relative, it does not always be altered and if it does not always the same and the alteration is not maintained if you put many calibrations you make it crazy, if you know that that is the guideline that marks

@"jconegar" Thank you !!I took one for the fever yesterday and I told you, I took it and altered at 20 minutes giving very high values, and then at 4 hours or so it stabilized again, I have not taken more paracetamol again, since then it is going well.All the best!

I take the opportunity to comment that the latest two boxes of sensors that we have used (8 sensors) are clearly less lasting.I don't know if something will have changed, but it gives me a bad thorn.They are boxes of different deliveries and dates.I don't know if someone has noticed the same.

The same is happening to me with the last box.Before I lasted 3 weeks without any problem, and now the second week they begin to fail.It also gives me a bad thorn ...

That I remember during the paracetamol what they leave are interrogations instead of the glucose value.That the companions who use it confirm, worse I think it was so, I stopped using Dexcom approximately 1 year ago.

@"Piruha".Thanks for answering.Well, we will have to be attentive.At the moment I have changed the culete to the arm to see if the matter changes a bit.But I certainly have the fly behind the ear.

@"Aaandres" I always take it in the same place, that's why it moks me very much.I haven't changed where I carry it, not my routine, so I suspect there is something else ...

If there had been something and the time you comment on the networks, I assure you that it would have been more than commented.There are hundreds of people using Dexcom and nobody has commented anything.

When something goes to the networks, when nobody speaks well, it is a more than clear and proven fact.Let's go if that happened at a general level I assure you that both this forum and Facebook had shot in comments.Let's see if the sensors have been exposed high temperatures or something.

Hello!For those who fail the sensor before the end of the week, inform Novalab, who is in guarantee and have to send you a new one.
I have been with the Dexcom G4 for a year and a month.The sensors last for me an average of 28-30 days, and I always put them in the upper button.
All the best!

Hello!Tell you that the second sensor I have used has lasted me 10 days, yesterday it started with the strange behaviors and questions, it runs out of trend arrows, and it is no longer reliable, the first sensor lasted me 15 days.It seems that they don't last long ...

@piruha, @"aaandres", good day.The first sensors I received lasted perfectly for a month or more.They came in a box with green stripe.Now they come in box with orange strip (Ceteris Paribus) and gives the coincidence that they last for 3 weeks.Mystery....

I have put the new sensor this morning at noon, I have stable blood glucose at the time I have put it on and to see if you can help me because it is totally uncontrolled, it is marking me up and down when it seems to him, abrupt down with twoArrows with a different level to the capillary, meaningless, in capillary it is well and higher.I have to remove it or there is some way to fix it.Because the anxiety that causes this is great.
Thank you!

Hello @Sonii my son has the dexcom and many times what you say, with which he has to see ... I do not know ... in my case I stabilize alone, when it is stable I calibrate it and follow ... and x whatI see when it is stable it seems that the sensors last more ... and x of course that is exhausting and worries !!!Let's see if someone else responds ... I'm also novice

@"Dani76" Yes, it is well fixed, I have fixomull from day one.With respect to the ups and downs, today it has been a roller mountain day, I have had an abrupt decrease and then it has gone up, it can be for that reason why no longer endures?
