The Dexcom 6 app sends false BG readings to Loop when sensor not active #756

Description

@dmhuffmanmd

The fix for using both Dexcom 5 and 6 apps on iphone is to have separate share accounts with the current version of Loop. However, obtaining data directly from the Dexcom 6 app in upcoming versions may be more complex. When a sensor is not active or not reading to the app, the Dexcom 6 app sends glucose levels of 10 or 1 mg/dl to Loop. Something to be aware of when updating the next Loop version, since it may also prevent Loop from reading from a Dexcom 5 app on the same phone. I had the Dexcom 6 app reading to apple Health with a 3 hr delay, but the same problem occurs when that switch is off.
