Message: <blockquote data-quote="dmfinch" data-source="post: 2074126" data-attributes="member: 504711"><p>Hello, I am 61 and was diagnosed Type 1 only about nine months ago--and started using Libre about six months ago. I find it to be highly inaccurate, and have had to request replacements often. I used one two weeks ago, however, which was very close to BG. The new one I'm wearing this week was off by 50 points (American) on the first test and 30 points on the second. I find that I almost always have a 20-30 point gap between BG and Libre. From now on I will wait 15 minutes before testing as someone in this forum suggested, but I am also going to find out if the ridiculous American "healthcare" system will allow me to switch to Dexcom. Thanks for all of the information. Very helpful. So difficult to learn of this disease at my age!</p></blockquote><p></p>
