libre 2

Has anybody found any decent sensor covers to keep the Libre 2 Plus sensor secure and to prevent them catching on things? I'm looking to buy some as I'm often ripping out my sensors but I don't want to waste money on ones that aren't up to much. TIA

Posted a couple weeks ago as finally got myself set up with the Libre 2 plus CGM system. I was having issues scanning the sensor with my iPhone but finally managed this. Raved about how good this was and got my mum set up also but through a reader as her phone isn’t able to download the app...

Hi all, I think I'm starting to get up to speed on getting to grips with BG monitoring using a Libre 2 CGM and a T200+ BGM. However, conversion between measurement units is causing me problems, and I'm trying to figure out how to set my target range on the Librelink app (Android) for my...

Hi Has anyone put their sensor in the inside of their arm instead of the suggested outside of arm? My little boy keeps pulling mine off on the outside and want to try on the inside but worried it wont work. I hope this makes sense

Anyone experiencing issues with connectivity from iPhone iOS 17 to Libre 2 when phone has been inactive for a short while? My alarms will not go off at night as connection drops.

I have been using the freestyle libre continuously for over 5 years now and the Libre 2 for the past couple years. There has been some that aren’t very accurate but most have been fine, and hardly any have failed midway through the 2 weeks. However, for the past few months I have had sensor...

Hello all, Sorry if I'm the 100th person to post or ask this question, but I'm unable to get a solid answer! Since the last LibreLink (iPhone) update I no longer receive CGM updates, have to manually scan again and the app continuously shows a bluetooth error. Is this the same for...

Hello, can anyone advise me about getting a Libre 2 sensor in the Austrian Tyrol, or at a push Germany as we are within driving distance of the border. We're on holiday, a sensor has just been knocked off and phoning round local pharmacies isn't bringing much joy !!! I'm pretty sure you can buy...

Hello all! This is my first post and really I’m just wanting to share my story, see if there is anyone on here who has a similar story to mine or has any ideas which might help. It’s a bit of a story but I’ll try and keep it shortish! I’m 37 now but was 32 when I moved across the country and...

Hi all, I’m due to fly in a weeks time and now super stressed about security and all the scanners etc! Now I know that the libre I am wearing can only go through the metal detector and not the full body scanner. What I’m worried about is my spare sensors in my medical bag. When I get to the...

Hi, very recently diagnosed type 1 diabetic dog looking for advice re. Freestyle libre 2. She's had it on since yesterday and is consistently showing high so we're needing to monitor very closely, is there a way to scan on 2 phones please? Currently I can scan on my phone however when I log out...

Hi there! I am 24 year old diabetic, living with type 1 for 9 years in the UK Today i realised my Freestyle Libre 2 sensor app would not work, kept showing me a blank screen. Spent hours on hold to ABBOTT who have let me know they’ve had an issue with their update, and that they don’t know...

Hello, my libre 2 sensor is showing the result before I even scan. I’ve never had this before. I checked to confirm it’s definitely libre 2 not 3. When I scan it just confirms the result already showing on the screen. Has anyone else had this or know of this error? Many thanks, Lee. Suffolk UK

Hi there, I am currently using Libre 1, as that is all that's available in my part of the world, but recently seen on this forum, that people are buying the Libre 2 in the UK. I did not think it was possible or needed as they are given for free on the NHS, but it seems that I was wrong. So I...

Hello all, I've had a Libre 2 since September, and it's been great. However, in the last couple of months my phone doesn't seem to be able to scan first time. I'm not getting an error, it's just not picking it up, and I'm having to scan 4 or 5 times to get a reading. I have an iPhone SE 2nd...

Hi all, I don’t often post here but do regularly find answers to most questions/problems, except this one. I’ve been using the Freestyle Libre 2 for about a year now. Over the past few months I’ve found myself having to scan the sensor with my phone (iPhone 11) between 2 and 4 times to get a...

Hi I'm type 2 and usually order direct from Abbott, but due to strikes and the fact I'm going into town tomorrow I'd like to see if I can pick one up from a shop. But can I? Who supplies them?

Hi, I've seen a few posts regarding getting the libre sensor on prescription, so I'm trying to get some advice. My mother is almost 90 and has been type 2 for over 40 years and always well controlled with medication. Until June this year when we were told that her meds would be changed...

Hey, new round here but thought I would try this out. So I have been using Libre 2 since around may ish this year. most of the time works great and how it should. But I seem to get a problem when applying it every now and then. so the first time I did it followed the instructions worked fine...
