Issues with Freestyle Libre 2

Now and again it goes silly and says sensor not working, I carry my finger pricker just in case but eventually the sensor starts to work sometimes it goes real low but not sure why and not sure I trust it that much lol

Hi
Just wondering if anybody has encountered any issues with their Freestyle Libre 2 recently? I change my sensor last night, scanned it to activate, and after the hour, got a Check Sensor message saying to check sensor, if loose from skin replace, and if applied properly rescan.
I rescanned numerous time and ended up replacing the faulty sensor this morning (on the different arm), and got the same message.
I never had any issues placing the sensor before and I am now concerned that I have wasted 2 sensors in 12 hours.
I contacted Abbott to see what they say. I am hesitant in using a 3rd one if I get the same outcome.
Anybody has got the same issue?

Yes I'm having issues. I asked Abott for a new scensor as the one I had just fitted had failed to activate. They sent me a replacement and it's done the same again. As a result I've had no monitoring over Christmas and this will now continue into the new year. I am now going to ask my GP if I can change systems as this seems a waste of NHS funds.
