CGMS –Trying to save a bleeder isn’t worth it

I had a new sensor yesterday that was a bleeder when I put it in. Theory is that I hit a capillary. Was getting wonky reading all day, was keeping me up all night and still had blood around the sensors.

Was also getting some skin irritation from the blood under the tape.

Noticed it was STILL bleeding – as I had switched out the tape last night.

Next time, I’ll go on to another site.

Also, I sure wish that the lapband surgeon hadn’t left so much scaring, limited the real estate I have for both pumping and sensors. <snarl>
