[QUOTE="sorchao, post: 2575360, member: 512341"] Okay, this is a weird one, because I didn’t think the Libre could move once it was glued on and the needle inserted. I put on a new Libre sensor this morning before work, in the normal area, just below the triceps muscle at the top of the ‘flabby’ bit of the arm. I go off to a day’s work and when getting ready for bed, I realise I can’t see the sensor on my arm. Lift my arm and realise that it’s now right down my arm, almost into my armpit! How the hell did it get there, that’s definitely not where I put it this morning!?! It’s as if it slid down my arm, but I have the driest skin in the world and usually have terrible trouble getting the things unstuck at all, at the end of two weeks. Plus there should be a sodding needle in there anchoring it, right? Anyone have any idea what’s happened here? I’m due to initialise it in the morning and I just hope that it works. I don’t think you can take them off and replace Libres, so am I stuck scanning my armpit for the next two weeks? [/QUOTE]
