I have been using the freestyle Libre sensor for about 20 months now and have had endless problems with them. Wondering if anyone else has the same experiences? I know lots have people have had the problem with the sensor falling off. I now use several different other products to stop this happening but what about the accuracy? At BG levels below 8 its fine - most of the time - but anything above this can deliver on average 26% inaccuracy. I know there is a timing difference due to being interstitial fluid BG this morning at 06.41 10.3, sensor 13.2. tested 15 minutes later BG 10.9 sensor 13. I have had about 70% of my sensors replaced by Abbotts when informing them of these two problems but this doesn't change the fact it is grossly inaccurate and potentially dangerous. Thankfully I never correct without a back up BG test. I have now been supplied by a BG meter from Abbots to calibrate. Their meter reads close to my own. Of the last 4 sensors all have this same level of inaccuracy. Anyone else experience this?
