Too many times getting message reading failed scan, try again in 10 min. I’ve already had to return one to Abbott. Appears this one will soon be returned also. What’s changed? Have process controls slipped in the wrong direction? Previous usage a year ago had no issues or error messages.
 
Are your blood sugars spikier than a year ago? Try again in 10 minutes usually means you’re rising or falling fast
 
I had that a lot, especially when, as said, it wss changing quickly - but thats when you need your cgm readings the most!
No such problems with dexcom!
 
Had a strange one this morning, went to scan & got message that sensor has failed & to replace it, can't say that's happened before in last 6 years.
 
I had about 50% failures with Libre 2 over the last 26 months. A small no of those included 'sensor failed' messages. Most were too far from my actual to be 'fit for purpose'. So from my experience this is not too abnormal. Abbott always replace and usually provide packaging and a freepost address label.

Should have finished this .... freepost for the return of the faulty sensor.
