I haven’t had your particular issue with accuracy, but I have had sensor errors requiring me to change the sensor many days under the 10 day expiration. Dexcom tech support really wasn’t a lot of help. They did send me some Over Patches to keep the sensor stable, even though I didn’t think that was the cause. I searched everywhere for answers but @JessicaD here on FUD gave me the best suggestion, [Revised view on Dexcom G6](https://forum.fudiabetes.org/t/revised-view-on-dexcom-g6-yeah-its-a-piece-of-junk-and-i-dont-trust-it/7714/31).
