This sensor has been an exasperating one for it’s initial couple of days.

Inserted on 4/29 and “soaked” for 12 hours while the previous one finished its grace period. Initially, read low readings compared to a finger stick.

Overnight between 4/29 and 4/30 had consistent low readings. Ok, did a calibration and seemed to be on track.

Late afternoon/evening of 4/30, got a huge period of sensor error, all while officiating two lacrosse games. Finally it gets back to reading/sending results after I am done with the games.

Wake up this morning to an overnight of low readings, again. Recalibrate (again) within the 10% of current reading and it barely moved.

Decided to “soak” a replacement and will be switching later today.

Looking at my spreadsheet, it was a good run. 10 in a row of full time!! It had to end at some point, I guess.
