[QUOTE="EBe66, post: 2580835, member: 557197"] How long did you wear this sensor? I myself started using them around march 2021 and found them excellent at the time. That is until the same period last year. They would start good, pretty close to finger pricks, but after around a week they started to deviate. The deviation gets worse every day until they just stop working according to the app. The trouble is that, like you I assume, I don't prick very often if at all so at first I thought I was just doing great! After a couple months of not wearing a sensor I applied one 2 weeks ago and same story. 4 days before the end it stopped (after indication lower and lower readings for about 3 days). Of the last 12 sensors only one made it a full 14 days and coincidence or not, it was the only one I got as a replacement for one that stopped after just a few days. Nowadays, if I wear one at all, I do a finger prick if I'm doing better or worse than I expect. But that also defeats the purpose for me. [/QUOTE]
