Eek! Poor you
Do we know how common it is?
Internet seems to think as many as one in ten...
Fingers crossed for a clever solution

Which is the FB group? Looks like there are a couple at least.I saw some ppl in the Facebook group talking about the second skin thing. Looks worthy a go. Maybe we should all try it just to have a break from the glue
Hi Smidge, could you post a link of the webshop with the wipes..just in case...
Like for the research efforts not for the facts itself obviously:s
PS - also for those who have had to contact Abbott about this - what number did you use? This one - 008000 - 2255 232 or a different one? I had to leave a message I guess as it is Saturday. Did anyone use email as well/alternatively?
Thanks,
Joe
No problem, the I have called the 0500 number several times and always get a quick response. I would say your sensor has failed :-(Hi Andy,
Thanks for the response. I was phoning the number on the Freestyle website:
http://www.freestylelibre.co.uk/help-center.html
But I did see that 0500 one on the Abbott website, perhaps I will try that Monday.
There are no error messages per se, just simply it has the "scan sensor" screen and I am trying and trying, multiple times and it just times out on the monitor saying "Scan Timeout. The Sensor was not found. Scan the sensor again."
So this suggests to me either:
1) The sensor has failed completely and lost the ability to communicate with the reader
or
2) There is a fault in the NFC of the reader.
Thanks,
J
