Hello can someone help please, I can’t have a normal HBA1C test due to blood variant, so doctors have give me a Libre 2 Plus for 15 days as levels are up and down over the years, I’m 24 and 8 stone 2, I ate a sausage roll at around 11 am and 2 pm some quavers , not much appetite today but been having these readings ? Are these normal for a non diabetic or are they more diabetic? Thank you IMG_4491.png
 
Hard to say. Those are readings when you chose to look. Better to look at (or show us) Daily patterns or Time in range. It's possible it won't show those yet (takes a few days, I think), but when it does those'll be more informative.

It’s constantly coming up with ‘ rescan sensor ‘ literally every 10 mins sometimes , maybe faulty lol, I get what you mean though as it won’t give a few out yet says to early to show
 
Hi @francisgc11 and welcome to the forum - it is impossible to tell from one day's worth of CGM readings as there are so many different factors that affect Blood Glucose (42 in fact) - you need to look at trends in the data to have a better idea - wait till you have a weeks worth of data at least I would say

Thank you, are you on any CGM?

Yes - Libre 2+ as well but there really is no point just looking at one days worth of data (regardless of how many times you scan (which you shouldn't have to do if you have a compatible phone (make sure your bluetooth is turned on))

Is there a possibility this could be faulty then? As my Bluetooth is on and keeps saying reconnect, reconnect. It did say something about stay in 200ft of the sensor and phone but phones with me 24/7, if I come of the app it’s not actually reading nothing until I tap it , just stays blank, if I keep the app open u can see it moving up and down
 
It might be an issue with the app itself - you could try uninstalling and reinstalling it but you will lose the days worth of data (on the phone that is - but you can still see it on Libreview on a computer/tablet)
