[QUOTE="MangosteenElbow, post: 1844311, member: 322425"] On a related topic, the longer a sensor is in place, the more likely there will be some [B]skin issues[/B]. Just today I read the article cited below. It is worth reading. It has free access, so if you search for it you can download it and read it all. The article is useful because it combines a review of the (scarce) literature on the topic with real world experience from clinics. It gives a number of suggestions on sites, methods and skin care.
