Extreme allergic reaction; while using the dexcom g6 continuous glucose monitoring (cgm) system, i had a very bad allergic reaction to what i believe was the adhesive on the sensor.The adhesive caused almost what looked like a burn on my skin where the sensor patch was located.The sensors are supposed to be worn for 10 days, but i had to remove after 7 due to severe itching and burning.After approximately three weeks the mark left by the reaction to the sensor is still very visible on my arm.I have been using this cgm system for over a year and the past two sensors that i have used have caused the same side effect.This reaction has never happened before these last two sensors.Fda safety report id# (b)(4).
