[Diabetes-Talk] Dexcom G6 sensor placement

[doula.jarboe at gmail.com]

Hi Greg,

     I hope that the G6 is working out well for you.  I had problems keeping
the sensor placed on my abdomen, so use the back or side of my upper arm.  I
had to get my Doctor to write a note to allow this to be a work around for
me.  I have sensitive skin, and even with this work around, I start having
trouble keeping the sensor stuck at the end of the ten-day period.  Also, if
you run into trouble with keeping the sensor stuck, you can get overlay
patches, hope this helps.
Doula

Hello all,
Right now I have my sensor just a bit above my belly button and closer to my
side. Is this a good spot or should I put it below and closer to my belly
button?

Thanks,
Greg Wocher
