[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1951065, member: 245335"] I ordered one when they were first announced, it was a while before they became available. I have had just one sensor that started misreading after 12 days so no complaints really. I've had no problems with the reactions to the adhesive or the stickiness and although I started using Tiger tape, when I added a MiaoMiao to the setup, I stopped using tape and generally it's not a problem although I've not had a soak in the bath or gone swimming yet. In my experience it has been a game changer. I don't take the readings as 100% accurate but as a fair approximation, it's more useful for trends. It is there as a constant reminder of any sins and very useful when unexpected BG rise occur, I've cut back on things that are low in carbs but still affect my BG. It has also shown how protein can affect BG. I'm normally somewhere between 5 and 7, but 2 eggs for breakfast can cause a small blip. One thing I'm in the process of doing is to convert the daily report which is a PDF into a JPG and then stringing them together to create a video of my 24 hr BG over 3 or more months, then showing that to my DN or GP.
