The Dexcom g7 is categorically worse than the g6. Why the fuck are they discontinuing the g6?
The g7 is not made, despite their spectacular branding otherwise, for people wearing an omnipod.
I know what it says. I know it was designed specifically for the omnipod 5. I don’t care what they say it is an absolute trash product.

Sometimes the best products come from problems you’re trying to solve for yourself.
Glu Sight started because I wanted a better way to understand my glucose data and the patterns hiding inside it.
Today it’s used by people managing the same challenges I face every day.

This is an odd one. Glucose monitors that didn't meet quality standards were stolen and sold to customers.

rambling about CGM
So, something that annoys me about the over the counter continuous glucose meter I use: it doesn’t adjust its statistics based on the delta between sensors.
To be fair, a new sensor is dealing with a bit of an immune reaction, so its data can take a day to fall into normal ranges and patterns.
But the app does allow for a “grace period” of up to 24 hours after the end of a sensor’s 2-week lifespan before it starts ignoring readings, and that seems like an ideal time to start a new sensor and look to see how far off they are.
Maybe it’s not medically sound to do so? All I really know is that all meters (continuous and not) can vary from “true” by +/- 15%, and the only real strategy to correct for it is to measure repeatedly. The prescription versions do just this – you can add finger-stick readings to the data, and it adjusts its own based on the comparison.
I kind of wish I had a way to get the raw data from the sensor, as well as the post-session readings. I know that if the sensor loses connection to the app, or gets rebooted (magnet switch) after being told to end its session, it will intermittently look for its phone via bluetooth, (which is surprisingly sad, to have to continually respond to pairing requests from a bit of electronics that’s slowly running out of power.) I just don’t know what to do with that info, to make some use of it.
And of course, I’d love for some functionality to be rolled into the official Dexcom app – they could essentially make these more accurate without having to change anything about the hardware itself. But it just seems like the sort of thing that, if this was open source or even partially open source, you’d long since have had internet people submitting pull requests with code to add this, because they want it too.

Ich nutze den neuen Chip ja schon ne Weile und muss sagen daß sie scheinbar einige Probleme des Libre 2 gelöst haben.
Bisher waren die Blutigen Kontrollmessungen immer sehr ähnlich zu dem Wert den mir der Chip präsentiert hat.
Also kein Grund sich von #dexcom für überteuerte Cips vorschreiben zu lassen welches Handy man benutzen darf 😉 -
One thing hadn't occurred to me, wearing a continuous glucose monitor for the past year: It junks up my phone's Bluetooth settings with an additional device profile every 10 days. These profiles don't self-delete. I suppose there's no harm in it piling up like this, but what a mess. No easy way to mass delete, either - gotta tap each "i" button, "Forget This Device," then "Forget Device" again.

Auf geht es in den #HomeOffice-Freitag 🙂
Bald kommt wieder ein freundlicher Mensch von #Picnic, der mir eine Anstrengung des Tages abnimmt und mir ermöglicht mich auf die Arbeit zu konzentrieren und einen Stressfaktor zu meiden.
Nebenher noch den #Dexcom-Umstieg von G6 auf G7 mit der Besorgung einer geänderten Verordnung einleiten und dann ist auch Wechseltag beim Sensor.
Nach Feierabend bleibt also endlich wieder mal nur #MeTime -
Aufgewecktes Kind an einem Urlaubstag:
Der Blutzuckersensor meint für 30 min mal "gestört" zu sein. 🙄
Ich geh noch mal schlafen.🥱 -
Sigh, second in a row #Dexcom #CGM sensor dead at 8.5 days instead of the official 10.5 days, and I'm out, currently waiting for delivery and I thought I still had a couple of days for that...
