So I started on the Guardian 4 sensors with Medronic last week and was just wondering, do other others find they are doing set changes more often? My 3 day set changes seem to be going down to 2 days.
 
Hi,

Welcome to the forums! @Jimmy_Smith

Is there a particular reason you are doing them every 2 days?

I personally change mine sometimes before the 3 days are up (2.5 days) but I use lyumjev and my sites can get more painful at times.

As in going through insulin faster than I used to. It seems to have settled down now, though

Glad to hear it seems to have settled, I did find when I went into Smartguard initially I was using much more insulin than I used to but I mean my Basal went up from 15 units per day to on average 22 units!
