[QUOTE="Maco, post: 2356408, member: 465882"] Out of all the comments this is what I’d take the most from it. I’ve just come off Libre because I’ve moved over to an insulin pump with Medtronic guardian 3 CGM so the Libre isn’t needed. In the last 3 month of using the Libre I become aware of just how poor it was, I was getting readings of 17/18mmol when a blood meter reading would be 10. On the other end of the scale, readings of 4/5/6 but blood meter readings of 10/11. Towards the end I was doing just as many blood tests as I was scanning with the Libre. Unfortunately for me, even if my Medtronic CGM got took off me I wouldn’t return to Libre. It’s a fantastic tool when it’s working but personally for me I’ve seen to many accuracy issues. Goodluck with it though & I hope it works for you! [/QUOTE]
