Hello,

I am currently on my fourth sensor and loving the libre. Just wondering if any users have experimented with diffrent sensor placement ? If so, where did you place it? How was the accuracy in the new location compared to your glucometer? Pictures of your location would be helpful if you have any.

Thank you.
 
I've worn them on my chest in the past and I liked it much better there than on my arm, not in the least because I never dropped my phone when wearing it on my chest. I found the readings were way too low when having it on my chest, so now I stick to the arm and bought a sturdier case for my phone.
 
I wear mine on the inside of my arm. Pretty accurate AND no door frame issues

Thanks for the replies.
Do you have any picture of sensor placement, as I would like to where the sensor as close to the shoulder as possible ? Thanks
