[QUOTE="Gpad, post: 1306457, member: 31540"] To be honest this now sounds like a personal grudge against pharmaceutical companies rather than the specific issue of a senor falling off your arm, from what I understand you've knocked the sensor and it's come off, I've knocked my sensor a few times but it hasn't come off, swings and roundabouts. Also, I think we're all aware of how this business works, you only need to compare at how much a packet of Anadin costs to how much a packet of supermarket painkillers costs so nobody needs to be patronised into having it explained how overly expensive this particular product is (research and development is an expensive business though and the company will need to pay for that somehow), it will get cheaper in time and may be available for free at some point on the NHS. I've never had any problems with the Libre so far and there's thousands of people of similar viewpoint I'd imagine, otherwise there would be more complaints than there are now. Nobody is forcing anyone to use it, if it works for you, great, if not, then don't use it. It's really that simple. [/QUOTE]
