Improving Libre Accuracy?

If you are putting a racist slant on my comment then that is up to you, as it is not intended to be racist.

Look up the urban dictionary for the term 'phone monkey':

phone monkey
Anyone that works in a call-centre type environment or where the majority of contact with the customers is done through the phone.
But in particular anyone that cant do anything other than follow a pre-written script.

I was not putting a racist slant on anything you have said. I was however saying and will say again that calling another human being a monkey is rude.

You have made a statement which you obviously believe in. I fully respect that. I did however earlier suggest that I have gone through a lengthy process to substantiate or otherwise the 5, 10, 15,20 minute, 1 day., 6 weeks theory in order to better understand how my Libre works for me personally. I once again state that I am unable to make any correlation in terms of time factor where a finger prick blood test and a Libre swipe synchronise.

You appear to differ from the population of 72 on which Abbott undertook a similar study. In that case, sensor glucose correlated to a mean time lag of 4.5 mins +/- 4.8mins. The detail can be found here: http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/pdfplus/10.1089/dia.2014.0378

In the meantime, please ensure that your discussions remain cordial.
 
Fair enough diabeticliberty :)

The Medtronic CGM just like the Libre measures the same fluid so has the same lag. Obviously everyone's different so what you find will be slightly different to everyone else.
