End of the Year busy work

December is almost over with. I haven't written much this month. Work has been busy and I haven't done much with my Guardian this month. This left we will little time to write and not much to write about.

I did have great success with the Sensor I inserted shortly after the first of December. I managed to get six days out of it. There was no irritation or bleeding. I pulled it out on a Saturday and inserted a new sensor on Monday. There were not problems with this sensor either. No blood or irritation. I did notice the proximity of the CGM needed to be closer then with the previous sensor.

I believe I can only get two charges for the transmitter out of a single battery. The battery is not used up, but it does not charge the transmitter as fully, or it reduces the signal strength of the transmitter. This is not really a problem, but I do end up sleeping with the CGM instead of keeping it on the headboard.

I managed to get another six days out of the last sensor. this took me to Saturday December 15th. There is another story or two at this point. They will be coming up in future blogs. Enough to say here, I have not had a sensor in since the 15th. I will put in a sensor today and I hope my good luck will continue.

Happy Holidays to all
