[QUOTE="KenBachelor, post: 1687037, member: 218135"] Hi Jammy I had problems when I started using the Libre sensor, but I've found that using black original cotton KT Tape is the best way to secure them. Always clean the area thoroughly first with the swabs provided, leave it for about 15 minutes to dry and then apply the sensor. I find that a strip of the KT tape almost reaches round my arm, but of course that will depend on the size of your arm because I'm pretty skinny. It's a bit fiddly pealing the backing off from the middle, but having exposed about 70mm it's easy enough to wrap it round your arm without stretching it and even easier if you've got somebody to do it for you.
