??? Nightmares!

During our crazy lows yesterday and last night, Dex was giving ???s....Thanks Dex!!! I decided to put in a new sensor in hopes that we would not have to be testing him ALL.NIGHT.LONG. When I finished my post last night and retested, he was 118 (finally!!) I left his pump off since I knew I would be doing the start up bgs soon after. Of course he was at 304 and 298 at that point. I entered them into Dex who responded with ???. GREAT! So I stopped and restarted the sensor. A couple hours later he was 157. Dex took the 2 start up bgs and I went to sleep. He woke up this morning at 104 and Dex seemed to be working for the previous couple hours...until then of course when he flashed me his ??? again. UGH! Hope we can get Dex in line cuz after yesterday, I want to see those arrows!!!! (Plus I only have 1 sensor left...better call Dexcom now!)

It was a LONG night for sure. I don't know how many times I tested him but I found a LOT of test strips in my bed when I woke up!!

  4. We always always always get ??? the first night we have the Dex in. But, after that, we are usually good to go. Roselady
