In the case of the Dexcom I've been advised to make sure that it's at least 2 inches away from my pump site.<BR/><BR/>Also the Dexcom has a 7-day life span and the Abbot has a 5-day life span. Many of us are restarting these to get more life out of them. How would that fit with the life span of a pod? I think that's currently 3 days.<BR/><BR/>I imagine the sensor and transmitter will be kept separate. Combining the receiver functionality into the PDA would be a huge benefit. It means one less thing to carry around. So you've got the PDA and your mobile phone, <I>without</I> the need for an additional receiver.Bernardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14936264471078732019noreply@blogger.com
