[QUOTE="jackois, post: 690110, member: 99684"] According to the handbook, the reader can hold 'around 90 days readings' in the reader memory. With respect to sensor accuracy, I'm on my third and they have been mostly within 1mmol of my Accu-chek Aviva when I've checked. I also had the 'running in the red' through the nigh, so on the third night, set an alarm and and tested 2 hourly which proved that I was hovering around 3.8 to 4 until early morning (05.00) where my BG rose to 5mmol. reducing my Lantus by a couple of units has it showing running between 5 & 5.5 through the night now. Confirmed, again, by setting an alarm. As an aside, since reducing the Lantus, I'm sleeping better, waking later & feeling a lot more like I've had a good night's sleep than at any time since diagnosed. No problems (hope I'm not tempting fate!) with loose or falling off sensors. Number 1 took a good hard tug to remove but number 2 took less of a pull. I've also started trusting the Libre to the point where I only finger prick before driving or if I'm feeling odd. [/QUOTE]
