[Diabetes-Talk] Dexcom G5 Sensor Question

[Veronica Elsea]

I was also told that the inserter will be smaller and simpler. Hope that's
right too. <grin>

This is what I do to get it to last two weeks. Get through the first week.
Stop the sensor and then start the  ssennsor  again and you will be all good
for the second week. That's  what I do and I get long lasting sensors.  what
I was told is the next gen sensor with dexcom g6 will last longer. I am
hoping that this will happen.

Good day list,
I have a question in regards to the Dexcom G5 sensor.
My doctor asked me to reset the sensor in order for it to last for a period
of 2 (two) weeks, until my next appointment with them. They said that if I
stop and then start the sensor session, it'd trick the system into thinking
it's working with a new sensor.
Is this statement true? Also, what would happen to the current receiver
readings? As far as calibration's, would I have to do a 2 hour warmup?
(Which might include 2 calibrations.) I'm just worried that if I stop and
start the sensor session the receiver and phone might think it's a new
sensor and therefore, it might wipe out the data to start new sensor
readings.
