[QUOTE="Knikki, post: 1922451"] But this is nothing new. Libre is at least 15 mins behind bloods and if your not sure about what Libre is telling you then finger prick all the time. Using Glimp, xDrip or Spike helps because you can calibrate with finger pricks but even that is not fool proof. Yes Libre is good for Trends and can certainly help manage things but I have had it where it is telling me 15.8 yet blood prick said 10.5 also had it where it has said LO for nearly a week but xDrip was telling me 4 or even 5 plus confirmed with finger pricks. Libre is great tool but in some respects still in development and I also find that depending where in the body you stick it can also vary on how close it is what the bloods say, and another thing is, from reading around, the sensors themselves can be hit or miss.
