I’m sure other people have posted in the past and I know we’re all different but I have a nasty infected arm from the Libre. I think it’s the actual needle type central bit that has caused the problem. It’s happened twice before but this time resulted in antibiotics and antibiotic cream.
My DSN has said to not use it for a while- though I currently have it on my thigh to see if it reacts ok. My arms are often scabby and scarred from it sadly.
Does anyone know if the Dexcom is made of different materials and how much it costs to self fund? Abbott couldn’t tell me over the phone what the Libre is made of.
TIA
