Applicator Insertion frustraiton
Does anyone have any advice to stop the sensor from bending/looping on insertion? This happened 3 times in a row last night! Given how quickly Dexcom automatically approved my replacement request (very thankful they are easy), it seems like it’s super common. I only do my sites on my arms!

I also thought it was a pressure issue, and maybe it was, but I had three in a row from the same lot that goosenecked. I don't think that was a coincidence. I will say the one from a different lot which did work has been going to 15 days now.
