[QUOTE="woodywhippet61, post: 1615471, member: 418778"] Sorry but where are you being spoken to like this? Can't address the rest 'cause I don't know anything about it. Re the Libre mine always reads low as in lower by 2 than a finger prick does. I just add 2 to whatever readings I get. This morning my fb's were apparently 2.8. So I had a think about how I was feeling - hungry ish but otherwise fine. If I'm worried then I finger prick test which is how I know that the Libre reading is low. I've also tested the Libre with their own strips and it reads a finger prick the same as a Jazz and a bit lower than a code free. BUT as we know they can all vary and it wasn't the same blood sample so .......... It's frustrating but I still rely on mine as it is so convenient to use. ALSO the Libre average blood glucose levels were very close to my last A1c which tells me that it is more accurate than I thought. ( No doubt someone is going to come along now and say that that isn't the case).:) [/QUOTE]
