Hmm this might be a tad controversial but I stick mine on my belly . Yes I know it says you have to put it on your arm ! Well I tried that and like many people it came off . So being an experimental type of guy i decided I have diabetes I have to live with it I will try something different . I’ve had diabetes 40 years and have seen various “new”things related to diabetes . With lots of advice at the onset ( diets injection sites the list is endless. Let’s put this into perspective , we as in us with diabetes have to live with it so why not make things easier for us, I decided to put my sensor on my belly as it was easier for me . I checked my sensor against a blood prick there is always a difference and it was within the a range I was happy with so onward and upward I thought, anyways I have had my sensor on my belly for about 7 months now , I then had a a Hb1Ac test done I thought this will find out if this is ok , well surprise surprise it came back at 48 so that’s it on the belly for me . I Rotate sides every 2 weeks
Some people are wary of change but it’s your body do things that help you . Let’s face it if it’s not right just go back to what your were advised , let’s face it if readings were drastically wrong it would be evident pretty quickly resulting in you going back to the way your did it before. And contrary to popular belief a few days of irregular blood sugars and not the end of the world. Control your diabetes for you , don’t let diabetes control you , I did say it might be controversial! But I dinny feel like I am in jail
