I accept that the 2+ appears to work fine for some people but also causes problems for a significant amount of others, as we are all unique in our circumstances and construction this is maybe not surprising?. For me the Dexcom One+ is just a better hardware option, mainly because of its...

It's interesting to read how this thread has progressed as I haven't contributed in about 6 months. I clearly wasn't imagining the problems with the Libre 2+. I actually gave up on Abbott and moved onto the Dexcom one+ which while a better product unfortunately also has it's positives and...

If a CGM has a manufacturing issue where not enough adhesive is consistently being applied to make it stick to your arm then it clearly isn't fit for purpose. I've worked in medical supplies for 30+ years and have also been a customer of Abbott for many of those. I made my thoughts very clear to...

I'm lucky in that my GP practice has a dedicated diabetes nurse, she has been testing the Libre 2+ herself recently and only managed to get 10 days out of it! I mentioned my experiences and at her suggestion I am going to trial a Dexcom 1 (in my stomach) a Libre 2+ on my arm and compare the...

Hi Kaylee I think I was possibly a member previously but lost the login credentials. I've been using the sensors for over 2 years, I initially had to fight for my CCG to fund them as (I believe) they were the last CCG in the country to implement Nice's guidance on their use for DM2 insulin...

I'm insulin dependent with steroid induced DM2 and the accuracy, and reliability of both the app and Libre 2 sensor are quite appalling IMO. I went through a period of 6 months where the sensors were either failing off or failing with different error codes for 2 out of every 3 applications. I...
