Anyone else having reliability issues with Libre 2 sensors. In the last 14 sensors I have had 4 fail to connect to the app (2 today) They will scan and tell me there is 1h warm up/ calibration time after which the sensor will say readings are paused try again in 10 minutes. After a few unsuccessful
Well, I had 3 Libre 3+ sensors fail in the past 2 weeks. Like you, 2 just today. One was a replacement I just received that failed about 15 minutes after applying it.
I contact their chat line to express concern about the number of failures and the response was like I applied the sensor to my fingernail. I assured them I'd been using the sensors for a year now, knew how to apply them, and was shocked at what appeared to be a major quality control issue.
I have been on the phone with them twice today. I put on the last one in my batch insurance covered and it failed (second one in that batch). So to patch myself over till the replacement arrives I purchased one out of pocket, applied it and it failed. I will get 2 replacements in 3-4 business days (holiday this week) Can’t afford to purchase another one out of pocket and insurance won’t cover more for a week and a half. So I’m going to spend a week with my monitors. I am more than a little pissed off. Hopefully they get their $#!t together.
Time to dust off the ol' blood glucose monitor!
I always check my blood glucose twice-a-day anyways, so I have a natural backup. I use the CGM 'cause I'm a data-junkie!
