Hi again
So the saga of this system continues, after the failure of 2 previous sensors/applicators we received replacements from Freestyle so thank you to them for that.
We followed the instructions to the letter and applied one of the replacement sensors last night before my daughter went to bed, this resulted in a bleed which we cleaned up with some damp cotton wool and then carefully dried.
We left it for an hour and then activated it with the reader which said it would be ready in 60 minutes.
When we went back to check it was reading that we needed to check the sensor, this we did and started it again.
This has been going on for the last 24 hrs and it still gives the same message, so we keep restarting it etc but still no joy.
Has anyone else experienced this? Could it be the reader?
We had high hope with this system after the trial but are extremely disappointed with our current experiences
Please can you give us an idea of what we could be doing wrong??
Many thanks
