Thanks everyone for the recommendations of different places to wear the CGMS. I was wearing mine on my stomach and hips. They would have wild swings from being low to being high when my blood sugars were actually between 85-110. Drove me crazy with the alarms especially at night. After reading how different women placed them on their arms and thighs, I decided to try both spots. Arms are a little tricky to do my yourself. Outside thighs were easier. I can’t believe how much a difference it has made. The sensor and the meter is always within 5-10 points of each other. I can also get nine days out of them. I could proably get more but I don’t want to damage the sites by leaving them in too long. Anyway thanks ladies it sure makes a difference.
