Hi all,
I just wondered if anyone else has experienced similar while using a libre 2 sensor.
The low glucose alarm went off at about 12.55am today. Did a scan and my reading was 3.8. Drank some lucozade and went to the toilet. It took an hour for the sensor to fix itself and start scanning again. In the meantime I did a finger prick about 5 minutes after the initial alarm and my level was 8.8. Seems a very quick rise for 1 drink of lucozade.
I’m wondering if the sensor can give a false hypo reading if it is losing signal?
I had a similar situation with the ge same sensor yesterday morning. It said I had a hypo, so I corrected it but a few minutes later the data had changed and there was no record of it on the graph or logbook.
