[Diabetes-Talk] A chuckle

[Joy Stigile]

Hi All,
I was once rushing in to the shower and rubbed against the frame on the shower and loosened my Dexcom sensor and it eventually came off later on in the day.  Dexcom also replaced that sensor.
Warmly, Joy

I actually just called technical support for the freestyle. I wanted to make sure I could start a new sensor on my phone. He told me how to do it, and asked what happened to the old one. I told him what I did, and I was like I was just dumb and wasn’t paying any attention. They are sending me a free sensor anyway. I thought that was really nice of them, even though I only had 19 hours left on my sensor.
