[QUOTE="Dave with T2, post: 2690246, member: 558661"] Hi Barry - sorry but I am quite relieved to read this. I am Type 2 controlled by diet and exercise. However, I have self funded Libre 2 for the last 18 months. Abbott have replaced at least half a dozen sensors for me that have been reading too high compared with finger pricks. In recent months my readings have been consistently higher than finger pricks but I have stopped complaining. They might as well just say low, medium and high for all the use they are now. Not sure why I am still paying £24 per week. There is no point asking them to send another one because they are all doing it now. Of course it is a worry that my blood sugar level may be increasing but there is no indication of this when finger pricking. My exercise level and low carb diet have not changed in recent months. My HbA1c was 40 back in November so I nervously await the next one in May. Regards Dave [/QUOTE]
