dexcom meter tip

Anyone out there leave their dexcom sensor in for about 12 hours or so (overnight-ish) before initially calibrating a new sensor?

I've found that when compared to not doing that, it *really* helps with the "noisy" readings that are ever so frustrating.

Smile Thanks for the suggestion

Call me stoopid, but I never thought of this. Next time I'm replacing one, I'll try this.

Interested in another tip for Dexcom?

Read my blog post about an alternative to the Dexcom shower covers.
