[QUOTE="hols07, post: 944277, member: 208169"] Interesting to see I'm not the only one who has been experiencing issues with this. I have phoned the company to ask if they would send a replacement. They will also send out a biohazard bag for you to return the problematic sensor. It would be helpful if people could do this, so they can look into the issue more closely and change whatever chemical is causing the issue in the adhesive. I have also had similar problems with the omnipod, with the issue arising after about 8 months (Dec 2013). The GP prescriped me a barrier spray called Cavalon, it works with the Omnipod, but it seems as if a 14 day time span is too long for it to prevent allergy with the sensor for the freestyle libre.
