Mike said… - Hi Charlie. Thanks for the input. I just got the adhesion kit from Medtronic, so I have a few items to try. I noticed that Medtronic has a sticker type device in their store to stick down the transmitter. Have you tried this under the other dressings? I've often wondered if the relative looseness of such a large device under the covering dressing (e.g. IV300, Tegaderm, etc.) is actually loosening the dressing from the inside. Curious if you've had the same thoughts.

- Hi Charlie. I was reading your post on keeping CGMS sensors in. I have the same problem and was wondering if you've found something that works well for you. I've been using MiniMed's standard IV3000. I tried adding SkinTac under them, but on hot sweaty days, like you, they peal off. The Mastisol/Tegaderm combo looked promising. Anything working for you that you'd recommend?
