[QUOTE="Prancy, post: 2710241, member: 572091"] I can understand your decision Mr. Freeze. I share your concern over the G4, but they do normally work for me really well, though I’ve had them end on day six, not seven. That’s within their policy as acceptable. And, extending them for a second week, which I used to do with G3, isn’t feasible. They won’t go past 2-3 more days, so I don’t bother anymore. Just aim for 7 days and start with a fresh one. With G3 and my Medtronic 670, I could get almost 28 days on one sensor with accurate results, though I don’t advise anyone to do that. It is not recognized as acceptable by the company so no one do it. I have the best of luck with my sensor on my arms. Even with my Dexcom, that was the case. The torso doesn’t work well for me. Best of luck with your next treatmemt. i’ll look forward to seeing your progress. [/QUOTE]
