[QUOTE="wobbles, post: 2642204, member: 13005"] Thanks so much for sharing this [USER=533931]@domoboy[/USER] I also appreciate the help Libre sensors have given me in managing my Type 2 diabetes I’ve been diagnosed with since 2008. The data has helped me in my current journey towards remission. I’ve been using them (buying them) for about 4 years or so. The last 3 months my sensors have been pretty flawless but last week I had the same symptoms as you. Sensor reading was 5.4 when started (accurate) then with minutes 3.6 and then “LOW” and then within 24 hours stopped working. The new one stopped working on the very first scan. I think Abbott quality control needs looking at as I have a high sensor failure rate in the last year or so (then improved 3 months ago until recent failures). When I return the failed sensors I never get the results of their analysis of the root cause. For a Type 2 these sensors are super useful but honestly are a “nice to have”. I do worry about my Type 1 colleagues though that rely on the accuracy for their treatment… [/QUOTE]
