[QUOTE="Rokaab, post: 2217351, member: 450212"] They are accurate to a certain extent, for some they are for more accurate than they are for others, I think I've read for some people they just don't work very well. Mine (I use the libre) normally shows 0.5-1 lower than I am, but its consistent so I know how to deal with it. Are you verifying some of the results with blood tests? And yes if she's only wearing then 5.5 days out of 7 that could make a difference as you only have 78% of the actual data, she could be higher on the other day and a half which could make a difference - whether it'd be that much difference though I couldn't say.
