[Diabetes-Talk] Dexcom G6 users

For those who are out there using the Dexcom G6, I hav a couple more
questions, please just the G6 users:

 

Someone mentioned no calibrating just enter in code?  

 

So is the code on the transmitter?  Do you need to put this into the smart
phone?  Do you need help from a sighted person to read this code?

 

How did you find the G6 apt?  Is it as easy as the G5 apt?

 

I did not get the Dexcom G6 today.  Sad eyes.  They sent me a 3 month
supplies for the G5.  I called them up to find out what's up and they told
me Dexcom is having problems keeping up for the demand of the the G6
supplies.  After them doing some more research concerning my order, they
said there was a date that if orders were put in prior to this date, you
would get the G6 supplies and if the order was received after that date you
would get the G5 supplies and wait 3 months to get the G6 supplies.  They
also old me I was suppose to be notified about this switch.  Well it seems
as my order was placed prior to the date and they were waiting to here back
from my doctor and they did not notify me.  They gave me 3 options.  1.
Keep the G5 supplies and try again in 3 months..  2  return the G5 supplies
and wait for the G6 to to come in  and I told them I had already been frozen
out of getting the G6 as that was the story I heard 6 months ago, So I told
them I have been without my Dexcom for pushing 3 weeks now and I will wait
until the G6 supplies come in.  They weren't in too much of a rush when I
called them 3 weeks asking to a reorder and told them at that time I had one
needle left.  When I put in the last sensor that I had it worked less than 3
days and gave up.  Dexcom told me they would overnight a sensor to me and
give it a try.  I told them it had announced that this was the last  session
Well I received the sensor that Dexcom sent to me and I couldn't get past
the 2 hour warm up time.

 

Things are good when everything is working.
