[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1026307, member: 211504"] Update- my transmitter has now been replaced. Yesterday, I received a final notification to replace the transmitter. The transmitter continued to function but only displayed the trend line graph (did not show the current reading). Technically, I could have worn in longer but the partial functionality was quite annoying. Bottom line: G5 transmitter- lasted me 104 days before losing partial functionality. G4/G5 sensors- I still average about 10 days per sensor but could easily go longer if I needed to. G5 receiver- I never use it. In fact, I don't even bring it with me even when I travel. Don't freak out with the reading, it's in my/dL (divide by 18 for mmol/l) [ATTACH=full]17101[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
