    Libre 2 constantly opening up with a scan error message

    Anyone else have this? A few times a day my Libre app springs to life with a scan error message. I close it and it comes back again for lots of times in a row, I don't seem able to shut it down.

I'm type 2, diagnosed 6 years, had a brilliant initial response to Gliclazide 40mg which lasted 3 years. Then had a couple of not so good years A1C around 57-62. Then this last year has been poor and I've...
