    Libre readings bottom out and flatline... yet I'm still alive

    Thanks, I have an S6 and it's been no problem with Glimp at all. All the reports I've read where a phone has killed a sensor (via glimp or otherwise) have been S7 or S8 and the sensor has died outright. Not my case at all.

    Libre readings bottom out and flatline... yet I'm still alive

    Thanks, I'll take a look at the paper tomorrow. But that effect wouldn't explain why I'm still flat-lining at 3pm, would it? (No cheeky lunchtime naps in this household!) Check out the graphs in my original post. The problem started at night but has continued for 48 hours now. I suppose it's...

    I had my very last dose of Levemir today. Never having it again

    It took a freestyle libre and a couple of days fasting (thanks to food poisoning :depressed:) to show me that my levemir want lasting the full 24 hours. I now split my dose morning and evening, reduced it a bit too, and I'm much happier with it.

    Libre readings bottom out and flatline... yet I'm still alive

    I agree, that's what prompted them to replace my first sensor too. Glimp shows that there are continuously-varying, if stupidly low, readings even in the 'gaps'. They seem keen to replace a sensor if you have "try again in 10 mins" errors for more than 2 hours straight, too.

    Libre readings bottom out and flatline... yet I'm still alive

    OK, interesting. Mine is fractionally below the level of my armpit and on the arm I sleep on more. This position was OK'd by the Abbott rep who gave me the trail at the hospital, but nothing beats experience. Nobody said anything about avoiding sleeping on it! Thanks for the tip.

    Libre readings bottom out and flatline... yet I'm still alive

    Thanks. The gaps are only visible in the LibreLink app; Glimp shows a continuous, varying line for that time period at around 1 mmol/l. I guess LibreLink filters out any values which are infeasibly low? I can only see the 15-minute data in Glimp, therefore I don't see the gaps in the 15-minute...

    Libre readings bottom out and flatline... yet I'm still alive

    This is the second sensor I've had in a row develop a fault like this: So my readings fall through the floor overnight, I get frequent "try again in 10 minutes" errors, and there are gaps in the graph. It's been acting up for a couple of days now, but is still stuck to my arm like a limpet...
