My 20 year old son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes 18 months ago. His Diabetes nurse suggested the Freestyle Libre which I purchased.
We have had continual problems with the sensors - we have gone through about 8 so far.
Firstly they kept falling off within 24 hours so we were advised to buy a specific medical adhesive which we duly did.
Now the sensor stays on but they never last more than 1-2 days before they stop reading. I would have thought that if this had happened once or twice it might have been the sensors but 8 times?? Does anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions?
Thanks
Theresa
