Working so much better

Experiment with the outer upper arm placement is thus far a resounding success.

The major advantages over abdominal placement are (as also reported by others):

1. Faster response time to changes in blood sugars (that is, less of a delay trending up or down)
2. Much more reliable performance, a lot less missed readings (especially during the night, where I am getting consistent all-night graphs now)
3. Better "stickiness" or "staying with it" when blood sugars go into extreme
   

I will also note that it is a lot less irritating to have it there.

I don't think I'm going back to my abdomen.
