Does anybody else who uses Dexcom notice inaccuracies when placed in certain spots? Like when I use my arms it's incredibly accurate, but on my stomach it's always unbelievably wrong? Don't get me wrong I love my Dex but just wondering if it's just me.

I’ve noticed that it can be less accurate with little variation in location. I’ve chalked it up to the sensor just getting inserted in a slightly less favorable way 🤷🏻♀️
most people find their cgm works better in some places than others and it varies person to person. my dexcom is only accurate on my chest.
@zellarius Interesting, my diabetic doctors always give me weird skeptical looks when I tell them my stomach doesn't work well lol I thought maybe I was doing something wrong! 😅
