Hello Dos Santos .

Please can you tell us all why it has to be the Dexcom G4 CGM 'only'
that you wish to purchase ?
There may be others that members know of that could be available in Brazil ?

There are also these thread's that may be of some help or interest to you .

I have removed the website details as we dont allow with profit's gained commercial advertising on posts .

I have replied to your post to bump up any help for you on this matter .

Where are you based? We bought dexcom g4 from advanced therapeutics in UK and they shipped it to Ireland. No doctors letter needed but we are paying for it ourselves. Good luck

I bought in a famous website in USA.

But after I bought I received an email from website saying that I need a physician order to buy this device.

And said that dont accept physician order from my doctor of Brazil.

Hello catw,

The advanced therapeutics in UK are only able to ship to locations in the UK and Ireland. =\

I am at Brazil.
And I have a friend living in US and every 3 months travel to Brazil. So if I get this device i will can get sensors with them every 3 months.
