[QUOTE="deszcznocity, post: 2227421, member: 520445"] I have this all the time. You are inserting a foreign object to your childs body and the immune system kicks in, hence higher values than finger prick tests. The results settle in after 3-4 days. Also, whenever you take a shower - libre goes crazy. That is why I NEVER give myself any insulin based on Libre reading. I always do a finger prick test and then decide whether I require insulin or not. As for the bleeding part, yes, I do get bleeding occasionally. It does not affect the functionality. Again - you are inserting a sharp foreign object into your childs body. Last thing, after heavy intense physical exercise Libre also can go crazy. Always finger prick to be sure - saves you from going out of your mind. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
