[QUOTE="ECDRUM, post: 1747131, member: 467306"] It takes a while to get used to the idea that there are TWO time difference factors at work between BG and Libre. Firstly interstitial BG lags 10 to 15 mins behind BG, and secondly Libre only samples every 10 mins. When hypo or heading towards hypo it is advisable therefore to measure by finger prick for immediate results. Generally however I find good agreement between BG and Libre except when hypo or the trend arrow is vertical up or down and changes are too fast for Libre to reflect. Once you get to grips with that Libre is a great help. It has helped me reduce my HbA1c very substantially over the last year or so probably halving my risk of major complications. [/QUOTE]
