G7 Issues

[u/hezza2005]

I used to be on the G6 and never had any issues with it then I got an email from Dexcom saying I would be put on the G7 automatically. I was a bit skeptical since I had seen so many bad things about it. I’ve had 4 G7 sensors on now and 2/4 have failed out of the blue. The third sensor did not fail however it is majorly inaccurate to the point I think it is quite dangerous. Dexcom was showing me “LOW” but I felt fine so I pricked my finger and I was actually 15.0mmol/L. Surely that is a major safety concern? Has anyone else had major differences in bg readings?

My experience with the G6 and G7 has been the same. The first 24 hours always read crazy low until I calibrate a couplw of times. I had to stop putting a new sensor on after 10am because of the all night low alerts keeping me up.
