[QUOTE="KenJasim, post: 2305100, member: 300065"] Hello! Hope everyone is well and staying safe! Im an 21-year-old type 1 diabetic who has been a diabetic for most of his life. I was recently put on the freestyle libre (about 6 months ago) and while overall it has been a very positive experience, recently my experience has been much worse. I have been 7/8 days into a sensor when suddenly the readings get very inaccurate. Like im talking 3.8 mmol/l when my blood sugar is 11 and more worryingly getting 7s when my blood sugar is actually in the high teens. This remains consistent until I take a sensor off and restart with a new one. The new sensor seems to repeat the same pattern. I do not understand what may cause the issue, when I call freestyle support they just send me a new one but I still get the same issue. It works pretty well for quite a few days and then stops giving proper readings. If anyone is having the same issue or knows Where I can go to get more support, that would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
