FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

[logindetails]

The screen is not like my iPhone but I find if you press it positively rather than jabbing it then it's ok.

 

[supp]

I have the sensitivity in screen problem somethings taking 4 and 5 presses

I noticed it when trying to set my Target Range. Up arrows were just not working.. Took about 7+ presses. All other parts of the touch screen work fine. Weird

15:05 2.7
15:16 2.7

19:13 2.9
19:23 3.7 finger prick

The low finger prick reading are due to not me consuming anything but black coffee since the slap up meal I had last night

My screen is the same

 

[Emmotha]

Oh and no carry case! any ideas?

 

[Danaemac]

Lol @Emmotha u need a case is it ever going to be in it ?

 

[Emmotha]

I know but don't want it to get scratched in my bag lol.

Just got first reading...
freestyle libre 5.3
Contour next 9.4 recheck 9.3

Odd

 

[Danaemac]

Can take up to 24hrs to settle down

 

[Emmotha]

leave the sensor in, from what I saw, they take a day to settle in, but maybe not that much

So the sensors only actually work for 13 days? Doesn't explain that on the website

This should be perfect for you:

Fits quite well in the case for a Freestyle Optium Neo - I might repurpose mine

 

[Emmotha]

I'd probably end up trying to eat it

 

[daniT1D]

Oh and no carry case! any ideas?

I bought a phone sock for mine.

Keep getting tempted to put the sensor on tonight but had already decided I would start on Saturday morning, as I will always be at home on a Saturday morning so no problems on change over days.... It's hard to resist though!

Just catching up with everyone's experiences today, it's showing I'm in a permanent hypo, levels won't go up above 3.9 - tried 2 other meters and they're both ranging between 5.2, and 6.4. Hopefully by tomorrow the sensor will have settled down.

Hi

I think i must be lucky as my libre has been with 1.0 of my accucheck mobile with 4 checks over the last 5 hrs concidring the time delay between blood and cell fluid and this being day one I hope it will get even closer.

 

[Emmotha]

Seems all our meters are all about 2 under

 

[Emmotha]

what will everyone do on changeover day? Wear 2 patches or test with test strips?

 

[logindetails]

If the sensor can't be trusted on the first day then it'll be a strip day for me.

 

[Danaemac]

I'm only bout 0.5 out against an aviva xpert

 

[Minnie45]

I'll be using strips my first day too I think
