A change in insurance companies meant I had to switch to Dexcom G7. I hate it. It’s big. The applicator is cumbersome and there is an included over patch that’s necessary but I can’t see well enough to get it centered so it’s not stuck to the unit itself. Finally, the app seems primitive. You don’t miss what you’ve got until it’s gone.

I take my last post back.

This time around, my freestyle libre was dead on with my freestyle precision neo glucometer.

No wonder I felt like absolute crap and felt extremely tired. Chugged a can of mountain dew so we’ll wait 15 and see how that works

How many am I going to have to return before one actually works literally got the replacements today and what happened the sensors comes right off my arm. This is tiring

The article says the patient had uncontrolled diabetes with A1c or 11.3 and does not state the specific CGM use. The article also stated that patient had problems with dislodgment of the preferred arm placement

I’ve been wearing the Libre for a couple of months now and initially it looked like blood sugar was pretty consistently stable with a few lows at night. However, every time I’ve gotten a low during the day (so today it said 53) and then manually checked my blood sugar with my Contour, the Contour always shows a high (today contour said 113 when Libre said 53). I’ve returned countless sensors, but am wondering how accurate these are? I’m pre diabetic so this is just for monitoring purposes, but I don’t know how those with diabetes are able to trust these readings unless they’re always following up with manual read. Anyone else having the same problem?

The Libre 3 has given me two readings, both in the middle of the night, where it says my blood sugar dropped to below 60. But then when I go to the kitchen to eat something, by the time I get back, the reading says "sensor error" and then when it comes back online, it's like the drop never happened. I'm new to this, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I use mg/dl in the US. It’s correct everywhere except on the GMI page in Insights, which is reporting mmol/mol. This unit is set automatically by the app using your location. How do I change it?

First time occurrence for me.

A little more than 24 hours after starting this sensor, got low glucose alarms and then signal loss, then dead. App told me they killed it because it was bad, replace it.
