On my 3rd libre sensor now as part of my start up trial and was all going well.
Anyway, I have just had a few days of weird results before I realized that the sensor is given falsely inflated figures. Caused me quite a problem for a couple of days as the sensor was reading +50% through-out the range! I know now I should be backing it up with more blood tests for verification.
So how reliable are the libre patches, is the fault caused by a bad sensor or a reaction in my body to the probe?
How often will a sensor go bad?
I have seen that abbot exchange sensor that develop faults, I need to contact them I presume.
What are other people’s experiences?
