That’s an idea as I have about 7 tubs leftI guess the good thing its usually about 0.5-0.8 so I could just carry on using the Codefree and subtract..

Have you heard any more from Home Health?That’s an idea as I have about 7 tubs left
Nothing since Monday when they said they were waiting for the manufacturer’s report. I’ll drop them a line if I haven’t heard back by tomorrow.Have you heard any more from Home Health?

Still the Codefree at the moment.. I just want my old friend to be correct! Plus I have over 400 strips still to use!Could be dangerous though. Which of these comparison readings are you using for your stats?

I think that is sensible. It is what I did when I was testing out the 2 different meters before eventually giving up on the Codefree.
I doubt this will get anywhere. The differences are mostly within the tolerances. (15% above 5.6 or 0.83 for concentrations below 5.6) 95% of the time. It is unsettling and annoying though, and who is to say the Caresens is correct?
Well that's quite interesting because on the Codefree, unless fasting, I'm usually between 5 and 6 but then my HbA1c comes out at 27 mmol/m which would imply lower average blood glucose levels mid 4's to 5's. Knock 0.5 mmol/l of my Codefree scores and voila! All explained..
To be honest until I start to see some problematic variations in my numbers I'll carry on without the Libre as there are others who could get far more benefit from it than me... Plus I'll have to expand my poor old creaky spreadsheet even more!It would be great if you had occasional use of a Libre to see what is happening overnight
I've just ordered a Tee2 meter and strips so when that arrives will carry on with the parallel testing.. as the strips are so much cheaper than the Caresens. If I'm going to ditch the Codefree I want a better priced solution..
Ive been using the Tee2 for a couple of years as a back up meter and it seems pretty accurate - it diagreed with my GP prescrbed one touch ultra, always reading lower but my hba1c was also always lower than the one touch ultra readings predicted.My GP changed me over to a Gluco nexus meter when the one touch stopped making strips and since then both meters and my hba1c have been singing in harmonyWill be interested to see how you go with the Tee2.
