Dexcom and Princess Medallion?


Recommended Posts

Hi- I just posted this on Princess site, but maybe someone on this site can be helpful---   I will be on a Princess cruise in Sept, and will be receiving a medallion with lanyard in the mail.  Those of you who have travelled on Princess know what I am talking about.  I just read somewhere that people who wear a pacemaker have problems with this.     I am a diabetic and have attached to my arm Dexcom 7 monitor----  My question is:  Have nay of you who wears a glucose monitor on their arm, and have sailed on Princess with the medallion, had any problems with Dexcom not working, or damaged, etc?

Thanks for your responses.... Anita

I checked with Dexcom- got the usual vague answer- it may or may not work right with medallion, they really don't know- just to bring  lancets and old fashioned monitor as back up, in case it doesn't work.  It sure would be nice if I could get a straight answer.  Dexcom attitude is that they will just replace the sensor, when I come back from cruise if there is a problem. I just would like to know what the story is from someone who has actually used Dexcom while using Princess Medallion.
