New Libre 2 user

I've been using the libre2 since last year.
When the sensor says it's going to finish in 1hr I'll "install" (but not start) another one, then ofc start the new one when the old one beeps it's finished.
Sometimes the sensor takes a little while to stablise. The one I'm wearing now flatlined at 2.9 while I was sleeping, within 24 hrs of installing it. It normalised some 6 hrs later. Usually that doesn't happen. it may have been because i slept on it.
I'll manually scan every so often because sometimes I'm out of bluetooth range of the phone. If there's recent gaps in the graph, when it's manually scanned, these will be filled in but there's a limit, it seems, how far back in time it'll do that. The sensor should take continuous readings for as long as the sensor is active.
