Faulty Libre sensor?

[Jon-Manchester]

I scanned my libre this morning and found a big gap in my readings overnight.
Has anyone seen this before? Is my sensor faulty?
I only have 3 days left of the sensor so I could change it a bit earlier if needed..

what does everyone think?

thanks

Jon

Oh I just realised, I might gone over the 8hours. Could that be it?

Yep, probably. Happened to me a couple of times.

That's just a gap from not scanning it in the 8 hour window to get a continuous graph xx

Agree with the others 🙂 Tends not to happen to me because I scan when I get up in the night for a pee, and that happens every night these days! 😱 🙂

Yes makes sense, I normally don’t go to bed that early or sleep through the whole night. Punishment for a good night sleep I guess😉

The other time you might get a short gap is of your BG is fluctuating more significantly than the sensor expects, and you get a ‘reading unavailable, try again in 10 minutes’ message.

You can also get a gap if your reader / phone clock time changes. Though I *think* that’s only the ‘last 8 hours’ view, and the 24 hour view remains intact.
