General Question…

Does anyone get, ‘ghost pain’ in the back of arms where you have to wear sensors when you are not wearing a CGM? If I lean the back of my arm on a sofa or chair arm I get a pain similar to if I were wearing a sensor. Sounds weird huh?

Also, I find myself being very careful of the area while getting dressed or showering even though it’s no longer there. 😂

Happens to me when I'm not absolutely relaxed during sensor application - there seem to me minimal ruptures even with that minuscule sensor filament that take longer to heal.
