[QUOTE="Alectron, post: 2568543, member: 477493"] As a very long term type1 Diabetic I have used many methods of checking my B.S and yes Urine too. As a result, and being on the original survey team to asses suitability, which I have to admit, they most certainly are. I have used Libre sensors ever since. Starting with Libre 1 there were only very minimal failures mostly not even worth mentioning, accuracy was in the region of about 8-10% and glucose change-time detection was in the region of 20 minutes. While not being on any survey team anymore, Libre 2 sensor detection has proved to be just about the same but reliability seems to be a real problem. My own experience says that about 1/3 failure is normal but after making many complaints and lengthy phone calls to report is very tiresome indeed. They will replace the sensors but this can take about 1 wk, not good if it's your last sensor. Out of frustration I'm trialling another type of sensor for my future! [/QUOTE]
