Guardian Link 2 on my arm? Sensor is barely moving(my sensor readings)

After having poor results on my stomach, I decided to try on my arm. My first attempt was painful, I probably hit a muscle, but I went ahead and connected and warmed everything up. Calibrated my sensor but my blood sugar readings would barely move. And if it did it was by 0,1 or maybe 0,2 at the time, maybe once every 15min. It did this for hours, no matter how much I ate or how much insulin I used so I think it's safe to say it's not working.

I did a second attempt on my other arm, pretty high up and on the back as I found most fat there(I don't have a lot and I work out, I'm in a okayish shape, perhaps 14% body fat with some muscle). That one did not hurt at all, but I got the same result on my sensor, my readings barely move no matter what I do. So now I've used up two transmitters(?) in two days and I have no idea why it's not working. I tried googling and searching but I've found nothing about this issue.
 
No I have not, I probably should. I'm just trying to figure out if this is a somewhat common issue when the insertion is no good, and or not enough fat.
