Hi all

I have had a couple of issues with Libre sensors falling off recently which Abbott have dealt with really well.

I am keen to get advice on ways to protect the sensor and see what people do to add a cover or similar to keep it in place

If you have a patch or other solution that you could recommend I would be very grateful

Thanks

I got these in my local chemist.
They're not very pretty looking but great for protecting the sensor and if you position it right then you get no adhesive on the actual sensor making it easier to take off and replace when needed.

Skin coloured rock tape is excellent particularly if you are allergic to normal plaster.
