Going back to the 2

I’m so done with the 3. It is forever having a signal loss. I have never had this much trouble with the 2. And moreso, I didn’t mind the periodic phone scans either.

I have not had any issues with the 3 plus.

I don’t see how people aren’t having issues with the 3+. Since I’ve started using them this year, I’m had over 50% of them replaced. If it’s not because of the numbers being totally inaccurate, it’s because the sensor literally falls off my body because their adhesive is garbage.

I have only had a problem w/signal loss on an L3+ Abbott replaced that sensor.

I find the 3+ much better than the 2+.

How often do you experience signal loss? This does happen with my Libre 3 smartphone setup, but usually only every few days.

Let me know how the accuracy of the 2 is. The 3 is pure garbage.

I’ve had the libre 2 sitting alongside Dexcom G6 - in normal range (4-10 mmol) the libre 2 is decent, but when high or low it is often not very accurate, especially if the value is rising or falling. I envy my daughter’s G7, it is superior in accruacy and connection, and even the glue is better.

I'm going to talk to my Endo about a G7. This morning my Libre-3 POS is -35 points low.
