Hi All
Have just put a new sensor on my daughters arm and she had a bit of a bleed, has anyone else experienced this and do you know if it affects the readings for the sensor etc
Cheers

It's been mentioned by others here with no adverse effects as I recall. One guy did say he made sure he showered and gave it a thorough wash to make sure the hole isn't blocked.

If you're in doubt call Abbott.

I've had the odd on bleed before but no issues, just clean it up and go.
