[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1969377, member: 53162"] Hello and welcome [USER=499246]@Morto15[/USER] my best advice is simply regarding where you site the libre, best place for me is the underside of the arm, so flex your arm and ping it to the back of the upper arm, if it's on the side it can be easily knocked off. I also used a Tegaderm plaster to cover it if I am concerned it would fall off as you can buy them off ebay and they cover the entire sensor, just take care removing as they will take the sensor off with it. Also take care with overnight readings as applying pressure to the sensor sometimes gives a false low, lots of us caught out with that one, otherwise brilliant for your work circumstances and well worth the investment.
