So I changed my Frestyle Libre 2 sensor and scanned the new one to start it yet I got the message "Your Sensor is not working. Please remove your Sensor and start a new one".
I left it on for about an hour and still got the same error message. Thinking this must just be a dud sensor I took it off and replaced it with my other new one and yet exactly the same thing happened. They were put on perfectly on the back of the arm (as deemed the only place to put them by Freestyle themselves)
Has this happened to anyone else? I know these things often suck, but 2 complete duds in a row is the worst I have experienced.
Seems a bit suss, but might be a bad batch as the date is the same on both (31-08-2024). Or perhaps this is the start of my body saying no more sensors thanks?
Needless to say I do not have any more sensors to try out as some will know the NHS only give you 2 at a time . . . soooo . . .back to mr finger pricky.
