[QUOTE="DunePlodder, post: 503141, member: 25119"] I'm curious, did you manage to put it on your arm yourself or did you have help? I seem to need 2 hands. It sounds as though your readings match you BG meter better than mine. Although mine are often within 1 unit, I get the occasional 2 & even one 3. Normal BG meter readings can vary a lot between themselves though, I've seen big differences between consecutive finger prick tests, mainly when high. I'm still very happy with the Dex, as you say the trends are great. I still have to fight a feeling of alarm when I see the arrows, a 45 degree/single down arrow is fine if you are highish, not if you are already low. I've only used my abdomen for the sensors. My second one is still going, now 23 days in. Yes it is that feeling of security which is so great. [/QUOTE]
