[QUOTE="Mirabellae, post: 1497357, member: 411789"] So far i am in love with my new sensor... I started using Libre 2 months ago and discovered so much more, about how my blood sugar behaves. Especially during the night... During my normal daily routine (which includes doing light sport) i have had no problems so far... And all my readings were consistent with my accu check mobile values. 3weeks ago i went to holidays in Italy which really put my sensor to the test.. Heat, salty water, more sweating during soccer games etc. Due to this conditions i presume my first sensor fell off 1 day before expiration, but the second held perfectely all 14days long (it lost some of his adhesiveness around the edges tough) Then i encountered 1 defective sensor ( readings were totally off and it also lost connection for several hours) and 1 that fell off after 2 days. For good luck i followed the advice from my Diabetes Doctor and brought 2 additional ones with me... Thats why I would suggest anyone who plans to encounter stressfull sensor conditions ;D to eighter carry additional ones with them or buy some fixtape (which i am planning to try next time) As for the replacement of this 2 sensors i will have to see; since i am not back from holidays jet.. Hope this was helpful :) [/QUOTE]
