Me to. See my post " Freestyle Libre sensor Serious inaccuracies- Help us improve this!"

I actually had similar issues- i reported them in a post called "f Freestyle Libre sensor Serious inaccuracies- Help us improve this!" Perhaps use Glimp. It should help...

Tim again thx for your VERY informative response. First off, indeed the Israeli version is similar to the European one (not the USA version). So hopefully the USA one is better. Nonetheless, in any event, there are similar complaints in the USA as i shared with you. You noted a very valid...

Tim Thx again for the time. So, in a nutshell, lets all help all diabetics WW and share with the FDA as well, that the libre is a GREAT pattern displayed, but requires help in the actual accurate presentation of the BG value (before making decisions on whether to provide a bolus or not)...

Ah, i forgot to mention, i got it in Israel, where i am based (where it was approved for Diabetes type I patients) from January 2018.

Wow, i really hope and believe its better than 50%..... Incidentally, I to wasn't that impressed with the Abbott responsiveness (i mean i understand Abbott- they prefer attending to all the happy users and perhaps not invest too much in those few who are unhappy- unless they really have to...)...

Actually, I've been using the 14 day version only. I never used anything else.... Does that still make sense? Despite me using the 14 day version, and the person i quoted in the USA too, where one is supposed to read off the libre the actual BG level and calculate a bolus, we (Caloah and I and...

Tim, Thank you very much. I was indeed missing a point and thanks for elaborating. I REALLY appreciate your comments and taking the time to share with me these pieces.! The last thing I, or anyone in this great community i hope, would like to do is deprive the so many successful Libre users of...

Sorry for upsetting you. I didn't mean to. I prefer not to go personal.

Tim. Thx for prompt reply. Actually, I believe the FDA IS looking into this issue. Sufficient complaints (thank G-d) triggered an investigation. Per the rest of teh world, you bet the libre affects insulin dosage- pls look at whats happening in UK. DItto for the US. The MARD is irrelevant...

Tim, First off, thx for your detailed and VERY informative reply. Your perception is very well backed and seems to be very well educated. Per the points you made it, you are correct. The device DOESN'T have to work for everyone. Its fine even if it works for just 10% of the target audience...

Fair enough. I could be making false claims but i have a FREESTYLE pdf generated by downloading all the data from the libre reader and BG finger test reader, integrating the two in one file. This shows that what i say seems to be accurate- by their own software. This website is limited to 1MB so...

I agree. But don’t give up. Report it to the authorities (NHS in UK and FDA in USA) and they will get Abbott (the freestyle libre manufacturer) to fix it. Its not complicated at all- Those libre guys just have to listen and not ignore us. Don’t give up. See my thread We will have a better...

Hey i agree! So why not report it to the UK NHA and USA FDA and get them to fix it! Its not complicated at all. I actually discuss it in a recent post of mine from Friday per the libre! Dont give up!. We will get a better controlled life- trust me!!! I agree. But dont give up. Report it to...

Jordan You experience is i guess an extreme case of what i reported in an earlier post " Freestyle Libre sensor Serious inaccuracies- Help us improve this!" Take a look. Something like that never happened to me and i would strongly suggest contacting the Abbott help desk. Im sure they can help...

You are right. I did exactly as you suggested- called the libre help center and i got a new sensor and even more than one. They were very nice!! Unfortunately though, similar issues recurred. In one or two out of three sensors it occurs with me. Thats too much, in my opinion. The annoying...

That being the case pls report it. Only via your reports on the form 3500b can we get the Libre company to react. See the youtubes wheer i share unfortunately similar, if not worse, experiences and mind you i am tech savvy...

Interesting. I still think that the libre documentation can be improved. Mind you, they say you should do a finger BG testing ONLY if you get from the libre an indication OR if you feel something is wrong. I had various cases where all seemed OK, yet i still opted to do a blood test and it...

And here is teh expanded FDA

So, if we all agree, and that's pretty much the case, that it really reports only the BG trends well, why don't we get libre to market their device as to what they do and NOT what they don't do? Why mislead us? Why let so many libre users be mislead into trusting the actual BG levels measured...
