[QUOTE="zbluebirdz, post: 1605929, member: 390663"] I have used the Libre a few times and am not likely to go back to it - for the following reasons: 1) Sensor has a short life - stops at end of 14 days 2) I can easily cause readings to be incorrect (e.g. placement of arm, exercise, bath/shower) 3) Don't have any thick skin on my arms 4) The graph on the scanner isn't very useful when your mmol/L readings are in the range of 3.6 - 6.5. Mostly, I see flat lines with small "rises" and "dips" in the graphs. This is due to not able to adjust the upper limit of the graph's mmol/L range. 5) Expensive (I'm based in Ireland, so self-funded) 6) I received no support from Abbott regarding a suspect sensor [/QUOTE]
