[QUOTE="MarkK13, post: 2737495, member: 594170"] I'm fairly new to constant glucose monitoring having used the Libre2 system for a few months. However I find there is a massive difference between it's reading and finger prick tests. Does anyone else get this? I'm using a Glucofix Tech GK finger prick tester which always reads well above the Libre2 sensor. For example today I've taken the following three readings: Before lunch Libre 6.1mmol/L Glucofix 8.8mmol/L 2 hours after lunch Libre 6.3mmol/L Glucofix 8.9mmol/L Before dinner Libre 6.2mmol/L Glucofix 9.1mmol/L Both readings were taken at the same time. Is this normal or am I doing something really wrong? [/QUOTE]
