FreeStyle Libre 14 day

2 is being phased out to be replaced with 2+ (15 days not 14 only real difference)

I have recently been given a libre 2+ and find it very useful, although not particularly accurate, this morning before breakfast it showed 9.5, checked on my meter it was 7.5. It is very useful for showing you what your blood levels are doing, and how some foods affect your blood glucose more than others.
As a driver I find the low glucose alarm very useful in ensuring I am ok to drive. Personally I have not had a problem with sensors falling off, I always use a swab to clean the area before applying the sensor and try not to get it over wet when showering.
Unfortunately diabetes is a very individual disease and treatment is not a one size fits all solution (something I think a lot of so called specialist don’t appreciate)

I am using Libre 2 + ,now just gone over to Libre 3 ,started of ok ,but of late have had issues with the sensor being intermittent and also finding the sensor is coming off ,so found good idea and it works ,on ebay is a wrist support bandage (many colours) self adhesive and i have found they protect and really keep my sensor in place ,stop getting pulled when dressing etc,,copy and post this ,very cheap and works

I found sensor came off when I put it where Abbot recommended, ( outside of upper arm) mainly I knocked it off on door frames etc . So now I don’t put it there I put it mainly on inside of tricep not had one drop off since

For me, what helped a lot was using overpatches from NJaP. I used to lose sensors early or have them lift at the edges, and those patches actually made a difference. They don’t mess with readings and keep it secure even if I’m sweating or bump it. Might be worth a try.
