Actual (reported)The purpose of this study is to see if the use of a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) by people who experience low blood sugars (hypoglycemia) after gastric surgery can help reduce the number and severity of low blood sugar episodes.

Actual (reported)Percentage of Time Sensor Glucose <70 mg/dL in the Masked Versus the Unmasked Phase.
The primary outcome will be time spent in hypoglycemic glucose range as measured by percent time sensor glucose is \<70 mg/dl, comparing the masked versus the unmasked phases.
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Percentage of Time Sensor Glucose <60mg/dL in the Masked Versus the Unmasked Phase
The primary outcome will be time spent in hypoglycemic glucose range as measured by percent time sensor glucose is \<60 mg/dl, comparing the masked versus the unmasked phases.
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Percentage of Time Sensor Glucose <54 mg/dL in the Masked Versus the Unmasked Phase
The primary outcome will be time spent in hypoglycemic glucose range as measured by percent time sensor glucose is \<60 mg/dl, comparing the masked versus the unmasked phases.
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Median Sensor Glucose Level During Masked Versus Unmasked Phases of Wear
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Mean Sensor Glucose Level During Masked Versus Unmasked Phases of Wear
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Peak Sensor Glucose Level During Masked Versus Unmasked Period of CGM Wear
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Sensor Glucose Level Range (Highest Sensor Glucose Minus Lowest Sensor Glucose mg/dL) During Masked Versus Unmasked Period of CGM Wear
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Nadir Sensor Glucose Level During Masked Versus Unmasked Period of CGM Wear
28 days for those participants wearing Dexcom G4, and 20 days for participants wearing Dexcom G6.
Each participant will wear the Dexcom CGM for two sequential phases. During the first phase, participants will not be able to read the sensor glucose levels (masked).
In the second phase, participants will be able to read the sensor glucose levels (unmasked). Frequency of hypoglycemia will be compared between the two phases of the study.
The CGM will monitor sensor glucose levels in all participants. (Initially the Dexcom G4 was worn by participants (n=13); however, when the G4 became unavailable, the G6 was worn by the subsequent participants (n=10)). The duration of the Dexcom G4 sensor was 7 days (2 sensors placed during each phase of participation) versus the Dexcom G6 whose sensor duration is 10 days (1 sensor placed during each phase of participation).

26 participants (actual enrollment reported by the registry).
Effect of Naltrexone on Counterregulatory Mechanisms in Hypoglycemia
During the second phase (2 weeks for the Dexcom G4 and 10 days for the Dexcom G6), participants are able to see the sensor glucose levels displayed from the CGM. Participants will be instructed to use this information to treat low glucose levels before symptoms or severely low glucose levels develop. The duration of the Dexcom G4 sensor was 7 days (2 sensors placed during each phase of participation) versus the Dexcom G6 whose sensor duration is 10 days (1 sensor placed during each phase of participation).
