[QUOTE="rowlyc, post: 2245391, member: 518846"] I'm a new user of Freestyle Libre, only on my second sensor. I know that it has a lag time and that both the libre and finger pricking is never going to be 100% correct. And that you should always trust finger pricking to be more accurate than the libre. Taking all this into consideration, has anyone else experienced the libre reading low 3.4, me feeling low, but finger pricking showing 5.2? This has happened twice recently and really puzzles me. I spoke to DSNs about it and I think she thought I was making it up, the only thing she said to explain it would be if maybe my hands weren't clean whilst blood testing. But it has happened again now, so I sincerely doubt this will be the case twice, especially how much I'm washing my hands lately! Any suggestions greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
