Re: [IP] which side to wear the CGM on?
You might want to try different insertion sites too... I used to always use
the sides of my stomach but recently I've started using my hips as well. I
didn't notice it being itchy on my stomach until I tried it there. On the
hips it's much less itchy, the adhesive last longer, and the only issues I
have are remember it's there when I'm dressing / undressing so I don't catch
it. It might not hurt to try moving it around a bit.
