I’ve had the Libre a month now, but last week said gluscose levels low 2.9, so had jelly babies, alarm went off again, ate more jelly babies, then in the evening low again so I thought I’d prick my finger, no I wasn’t low I was 7.9, maybe the sensor had an off day. Other then that day it has made my life so much easier
 
I've had the same issue before Kazzy, it somehow repairs itself, I've since learnt to do a finger prick test now every time my alarm goes off, doesn't happen very often but a nuisance when it does, hope you're doing ok apart from that
 
The advice is ALWAYS test when the alarm goes off because Libre is calibrated to be most accurate in "normal" numbers (between about 4 and 9 mmol/l).

It is also very important to be aware of the limitations of Libre
- out of range
- compression lows
- bedding in periods
- etc.

There are many threads about this if you search for "Libre".
