> I am totally unaware of lows and highs so mostly only fingerprick when I get alerts. I have at last learned to set my low alert number to 80 up from 70. This has helped with the panic I get with the lows.
I forgot to mention because you do not feel any onsets. Setting your low number higher as you did to 80 ia a good thing. BEST if you just don’t feel right to always do that finger stick. Maybe even do it a few times in the day just to make sure & stay safe. That’s the best thing is staying safe.
Cheers 😃
Edit newest G7 issue on mobile app. constantly says calibration in progress when I go to input it. Lucky I have a PDM as well. It hasn’t stop a calibration there.

I’ve done the online chat, but later been called by Dexcom over the phone to repeat everything (about 9 months ago)! Did get “overnight” replacement 3 days later.
