[QUOTE="TypeZero., post: 2294226, member: 525950"] I have just totally given up on the Libre. I did ask for replacements for the ones that failed but it’s becoming tiring to keep asking them for a free replacement. I think out of 6 sensors or so 3 have been sent as a free replacement. They obviously don’t work for me so let me not waste their money and mess with my health. Finger pricking has been so far great however because I was relying on the Libre I only brought 100 test strips of which only around 19 left right now— I’ve sorted out 6 strips per day until I return which is not totally enough but still manageable provided everything is 100% carb-counted with no guesses, it should be fine. Unfortunately with some Libre sensors there is a constant 3mmol/L difference but on others it changes between 1.5-3.5mmol/L so even if calibrated it would require several calibrations a day which would defeat the purpose of the Libre. A big problem was that I was relying on the Libre for highs and lows which is probably the biggest reason why I had frequent hypos [/QUOTE]
