As you have the starter pack already and no patches yet, how can you resist trying it!I just received my libre starter pack and found the choices available for patches/covers etc very overwhelming, I'm not sure whether to just go for it and see how well it stays on by itself or put something over it right from the start. I'll be taking notes of recommendations anyway
I use 10x10 cm patches of Hypafix (same as Tegaderm, I believe, other brand), so pretty big patches. As soon as they start to peel at the edges I trim and put a new patch over it.Well done all of you that manage to keep the sensor on!! Ive tried arm bands, Tegaderm , Elastoplast etc but nothing works! The worst was 90 minutes but usually they fall off in 4-5 days - much more work required from Abbott to keep these sensors on for the 2 week period - Its a thumbs down for me!!
