Libre 2 problems

Hi all,

Have been using libre 2 since October last year, currently have a 50% success rate with them. Very dissatisfied with the last sensor and after another call to the libre people I have decided to have a break from them to avoid the stress and get some sleep back.

So back to finger pricking for a bit, I have just downloaded the Sugr app and noticed I can pair a Accu Chek Instant with it. I've had BGMs in the past that state NFC connection but have never had any success with them.

All I am looking for is a BGM that will send the readings to the app rather than have me input them manually, does anyone have any advice or experience with the Accu Chek Instant, would be grateful for any advice.

Thanks
 
Sorry to hear you had such a disappointing experience @AlfieT

Have you considered one of the other cost-equivalent sensors like Dexcom One? It does seem that ‘the sensor chooses the person’, and some people seem to have no end of trouble with a sensor which lots of people (including many members here) find very reliable, and have very few failures.
