Get new sensors from them. I think about 30% fail. It often starts with crashing blood sugar alert but needle prick test doesn’t confirm. I was told on the phone that my phone wasn’t compatible because I upgraded to the latest software update. Ridiculous. They are great when they work but...

I agree. I’m still using it but find that about 30-49% of them fail. I keep getting told that my phone operating system isn’t compatible because I’ve updated with the latest version. (iPhone 14 pro). Ridiculous if they’re saying you have to run old operating systems. I phone up and get new...

I’ve had this a lot lately. I’ve spoken to them several times. Apparently it’s because I’m using the latest Apple IOS and the sensors aren’t compatible yet! I know ridiculous, you can only keep connected if you don’t update IOS.

Yes me too, but it also goes up when I just get out of bed before eating or drinking anything so I’m not entirely clear which is most responsible for the higher readings.

Hi mine keeps losing signal too. The worrying thing is it often comes on again with readings of 3 or even lower!

I have had the same issues and have a libre sensor. Through trial and error I have discovered that lowering my evening insulin dose it no longer happens. Occasionally when I have had very low carb meals my levels dropped to the stage that the low sugar alarm went off, it then shot up. With...

Hi I am on slow acting insulin and always get spikes when I eat anything, even the lowest amount of low carb. I also get very low (hypo bordering) readings with any exercise. Are highs and lows potentially harmful? My GP doesn’t seem worried but I can’t believe it’s ok.
