Shelly’s last Libre lasted 11 days, and we considered this a win. We used the directions compiled by @Tim & Pookey and the process went very smoothly.
Today we tried installing another Libre and it didn’t take (
)
When we pulled up to release, it didn’t seem attached properly, but we were hopeful. Sure enough, after the 60 minutes, instead of providing a reading we got a sensor error.
Luckily this was a replacement we got from Abbott. We are about to pick up a new one from Costco, but I am wondering if you have experienced a Libre ‘not taking’ for lack of a better word, or heard of it?
We did a little research and think we didn’t let the skin glue dry long enough.
We obviously did something wrong and now we’re feeling paranoid about messing up again
Thoughts?
