[QUOTE="miahara, post: 2424922, member: 256148"] I’m perhaps the odd man out, but I’ve found the L2 just as good as the L1 as far as measuring my interstitial glucose levels is concerned – there’s next to no difference between L1 and L2 and when I look back at the levels I recorded on the L1, and on the L2 the trends are pretty much the same. As far as comparing blood tests with Libre either the L1 or L2 tests is concerned, there’s always been a difference but as far as I’m concerned it’s not a major issue and in my experience hasn’t impacted on how I manage my insulin and diet. I’m just really very thankful that I was prescribed Libre CGM as it has vastly improved my management of my blood glucose compared with when I was limited to finger-pricking. A bonus with the L2 is the alarm facility, and I’ve found this to be a very useful and practical addition as I can set it to give me a subtle poke in the ribs if I’m starting to head too low. As I said, maybe the odd man out, but I wouldn’t be without my L2 – I love it. [/QUOTE]
