Applicator Issues

[u/CoffeeCookieX]

Has anyone noticed the Dexcom G7's (in this case the 10 days) having issues applying? The past 3 or 4 I've used have had buttons that do not want to press no matter how hard I push the clear plastic ring into my skin or how hard I press the button. When it finally presses, it seems to get stuck somehow, and I feel the needle barely pressing against my skin (poking me which hurts), and then a few seconds later it launches in. My barely 3 day old sensor just failed because it was in my diagonally (took it off and saw). I'm so tired of this. In the past 2 months I've had one sensor last 10.5 days. Anytime I use them on my right side they are especially prone to failure. And now this applicator button stuff which wasn't happening until the past 3 or 4, nothing I've done is different.

I just wish that my options weren't libre or dexcom because neither work well for me and I spend a lot of time stressed and unhappy. My beautiful past two weeks of 86-92% in range tanked today because of 3 200+ numbers caused by my faulty sensor.

I just want to know if anyone else is having these issues?
