“Fantastic material at a fantastic price, and it's waterproof. I'd suggest it to everyone who uses a sensor. It does not leave a sticky residue and can be removed with ease.”

“I use Dexcom and have had no less that 4 sensors accidently scrapped off since I started the system, by brushing against doorways, unconscious scratching in my sleep, etc. Dexcom claims they will provide their own versions of these, but you have to actively request them directly from the company rather than Dexcom providing them in the packaging with the sensors. And the few times I have tried to request them from the company, they never showed up.I came across Not Just A Patch by accident and took a chance after having scraped yet another sensor off by accident and ending up having to wait >week for my prescription to renew the next month's allotted sensor order. I can honestly say that not only have I not had another accidental tear-off after using the patches, but I have found them to be pretty reliable to maintaining adhesion during the 10 day stint that my sensors are attached. Not 100%, but enough to give comfort of mind. And I have had little to no skin reaction to the adhesive, nor the length of time the adhesive is attached. That is pretty impressive given my skin sensitivity.My only cringe is the price for a section of sticky plastic mesh. I mean, in the grand scheme of things, I amtolerating paying $1 a patch for the comfort-of-mind and lack of skin reaction, but it still seems kind of high for what is essentially a large non-sterile band aid. But I will keep buying them and be thankful for them, because sensors are expensive!”

“I stared using them because my g6 kept coming off when I get out of hot tub. These over lay patches are 100% worth it. With them I have no more problems.”
