Hi,

Can anybody confirm if the high/low alarms still go off at the right time during one of those "can't get reading glucose changing rapidly" periods. Or will they only work after the libre has finished adjusting?

Thanks.
 
That's handy to know, not had one of those messages for weeks now so must be on a roll.
I've always felt those moments a bit unnerving (hence the question), as it's a time when you really should know if you are high are low (within your target range) when blood sugars are rapidly changing. It's peace of mind.
 
Hi,

I contacted Abbott, good news is they have confirmed the hi/low alerts still work even during one of those "glucose rapidly changing" periods.

Good to know. Thanks for checking with Abbott @Amity Island
 
Yes, i always found the the going got tough, libre left you in the lurch. My dexcom doesn't do that
