[QUOTE="mickeyb, post: 1064519, member: 157416"] Hi, Just a bit more of a rant! After finding my Libre very inacurate as per previous post on different thread my 2nd sensor has just fallen off after having a shower, this one lasted 4 days! ( 1st one lasted 9 days). On this ratio it would mean a new sensor every 6 days = £240 a month, which makes it prohibitively expensive to me. Just some feedback if someone is thinking of shelling out for one and is borderline wether you can afford it, once again great idea and product, technology not quite up to it. Also tried using it as a finger prick tester and the unit doesnt turn on when i insert the stick, then when i press the button on the fascia it doesnt go to blood testing. I now wish i had spent some time researching and reading some of the reviews. I was on a DAFNE course recently and the Abbott rep came to show us, i was so amazed and excited about it i bought one immediately. DOH !!! [/QUOTE]
