I'm not sure the max time on a Minimed sensor but I'm on day 16 with my Dexcom sensor.

As for the temperature, I believe that 76-80 degrees is the max a sensor is allowed to get before being inserted. Not sure once inserted if there's a max. I've been leary of using a hot tub since starting because I'm not sure what that extra heat would do.

Diabetes is an Art, NOT a Science. You must master the control by skills and not by knowledge alone.
