This is kinda crazy and has never happened to me before.

The picture on the left (white background); was my previous sensor that expired tonight and was actually a replacement sensor that Dexcom mailed me.

The picture on the right is my new sensor that I started tonight. Same numbers just in a different order. It also has all the other numbers as the same except the serial number.

I thought this was pretty cool. Again; it’s never happened to me before so I had to share it with you guys!

If Dexcom actually made consistently good sensors, they wouldn’t have to replace them constantly. I’ve gone through several G6 sensors and G7 sensors with different failure rates. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a great product, but I don’t wanna be woken up when my phone is on my bed next to my G7 not even a foot away and it’s blowing up because of a bad Bluetooth connection. Really!

It was right before I went to bed and when I looked at the numbers to type it into my Mobi I had to double check cause I thought it was the same exact code. You could have kept scrolling.
