Using my second freestyle libre sensor - experiencing pins and needles and sharp pulsating pain in arm. Had similar experience on first sensor on left arm, using right arm this time. Has anyone else had similar experience ? Trying to understand what's going on. Thanks
 
Hi @Tracie1212 I haven't come across anyone having this issue before, have you inserted into the tissue under the arm or is it direct into a muscle ? Maybe give it a day and see if it still continues or if you're particularly worried call the Abbott helpline ?
 
Hi have inserted underneath arm on both occasions. This is my 7th day of second sensor. Yes thanks, will probably check with helpline. Quite painful feels like sharp electric pain in arm which I've never had before. Thanks for your quick reply.
