Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I wasn’t sure where to post.
I apply a sensor the way I’m supposed, to a clean arm etc. But they’re only lasting about 4 or 5 days before the sticky bit is coming loose. I’m even avoiding getting it wet because I can only imagine that would make it worse. I’m starting to avoid sleeping on the side with it on. The one I have on just now should have 11 days left, but it’s coming away.. good job I don’t want to go swimming or anything like that!
Does this happen tor anyone else?
Also I just tested on my metre which read 8.9 but the freestyle libre 2 says 13.5. That’s quite a difference if my levels were lower!
