R.I.P CGM!

I hate it when my libres do that. Even after checking with a fingerprick and finding that my cgm is well off, its unnerving - the temptation to eat everything in the house til it comes back into range on the app is :oops:

I’ve used a G6 but not the one..

Personally no problem with the libre but if it does drop out it’s never seemed to fail me reconnecting & alarm when I’m actually low or during a pressure low?

Funny enough, I have had a G6 drop out but I had it reconnect when I pushed the transmitter section back onto the probe bit? (Completing the electrical circuit on the PCB.)

How is your sensor compare with the meter now? (Assuming you are still running since the screenshot?)

Edit; forgot to ask. Where do you have your sensor placed?

I hated libre full stop! I had nothing but trouble with it! Constant signal loss and I didn’t like that you have to constantly scan with your phone to get readings.

Seems to have sorted itself for now fingers crossed!

I’ve done a bit of random looking up on this stuff.. (waiting to be blown out the water by someone more knowledgable.)
But Bluetooth & WiFi are on a similar close bandwidth. (In short.)
Lol, I’m pretty sure that any dropouts could be from neighbour’s BT/wifi or even within the household?
Years ago before BT Libres (Libre 1.) I used an aftermarket “bridge” to an app on my phone. NFC scans the sensor & bluetooths to my phone.
A lot of modern cars have BT too. My wife’s car included. Though I’m not connected.
It used to cut out when I hit my local Sainsbury’s car park.. a lot better now..
