My daughter recently started using the dexcom g5 transmitter as was having lots of lows throughout the night.
Lately the accuracy of the g5 appears rather worrying. My daughter was at school earlier and felt dizzy on looking at her phone it said she was 5.4 but on checking her bg via finger pricking she was 2.9 I'm aware there is normal some small differences but this is surely too much? We have had a couple of issues like this over last couple of weeks.
For info she calibrates twice daily as instructed and only uses the sensor for 1 week before changing.
Anyone else had similar issues??
