Message: <blockquote data-quote="oldgreymare" data-source="post: 2577866" data-attributes="member: 20373">If you are self funding and are UK based, the G7 is cheaper and is a simple one unit sensor that is very similar in size and shape to the Libre 2. The G6 is a two piece device and a bit bigger than a L2. Currently G6 is £159 p.m. and the G7 is £140 p.m., but there are a few pricing alternatives for both. With a G6 I have had a few dodgy sensors which Dexcom have always promptly replaced. I definitely make regular finger prick tests especially if trending low. Although Dexcom advertises 'no calibration needed' you can calibrate G6/G7 if you wish.  Obviously, the accuracy is difficult to check if your blood sugars are rising/falling, I've also lost signals due to sensor compression  from time to time. Hope this helps![URL unfurl="true"]https://uk.store.dexcom.com/en-GB/dexcom-g6/[/URL]</blockquote>
