Event Description
My dexcom g6 sensor failed for the 11th or 12th time in the last year.Prior to 2020 i rarely had issues with dexcom, but nearly every other sensor i wear will now fail.I have asked dexcom about this and they won't give a direct answer of course.I have had to get countless replacement sensors sent to me.They really seem to have an issue with the manufacturing of their sensors lately.Fda safety report id # (b)(4).
