[QUOTE="Deleted member 45091, post: 2511499"] Hi again, just wondering what is acceptable in glucose meter readings and libre sensor. Below is a few pictures taken shortly after one another on different days and compare results, it's pure hit and miss. I've tried changing the batteries etc. But trying to control my diabetes better but need the data to be accurate. I know the readings are rubbish and either readings but these were taken a few minutes apart, one example is is I did a scan on libre said it was around 18 then to double check I checked my sugars on a meter about 10 or 15 minutes later said is was 11.6 thought that was crashing way fast to what insulin I've had so then I check sugars again on meter and said 17.5 so I went with around that, unsure what's more accurate the libre or meter, and as I had a reading of around 18 on both the libre and meter and went with that and ignored the 11.6, but I am finding iam scanning on libre then a couple of meter tests and what comes back in the similar ball park I usually go with that, iam on a 4sure meter has anyone had issues with them, IL ask when I see the specialist next week, but struggling to do the right amounts of insulin if the readings are different all the time. I know the the higher the sugars the more it can be out. [/QUOTE]
