[QUOTE="Bon83, post: 1529458, member: 397387"] It may be me being slow to catch on but I had a bit of a eureka moment with my libre regarding the time delay. I treat every reading like it was 15 mins ago - this may seem obvious but I wasn't getting it for ages! I have therefore found it more accurate just that the time delay is really important for me. I have also questioned it's usefulness for me. If you have really stable blood sugar levels over several half hour periods then it can be pretty bang on. I would love to acheive that - but with exercise and housework I can't - last night for example I dropped really quickly and the libre was lagging behind my meter - the readings were accurate just behind. 10 mins is a lot when your on a rapid drop. I think what I'm trying to say is that I probably needed more specific education on how to use it - which Abbott may not want to over advertise.
