FreeStyle Libre I Sensor I Monitor Glucose on Your Phone I FreeStyle LibreLink App I Pack of 2

It is too good.It is really changed my life.It is totally tracked your sugar.Definitely people can reverse diabetes if people will do some activity and control food without any medicine.

While it is very useful, out of 12 purchases, three times it stopped mid way in its 14 day time period. That's a 25% failure.To make it worse. I could not return it or refund the first two times.First time, I had purchased 2 devices simultaneously. The second device I opened only after first ones lifetime of 14 days were over. That second device didn't work. But i could not refund since policy says refund only available within a week. So buying two together made no sense and I stopped that.Second time I had this experience the device stopped on day 10 and policy says within a week it must be returned. How does that make sense for a product supposed to work for 14 days.Third time happened luckily the product stopped within one day. Have applied for refund. Let's see if i get it.I have lost confidence in the product due to 25% failure makes no sense. Too unreliable with meaningless return policy.

I'm writing this as t1d of 15 years. I have been accustomed to the normal pricking glucometer which is hassle for frequent monitoring especially when you're sugar levels fluctuate and you need to monitor them round the clock for good control. This device is amazing! It is pretty easy to install and use and the best part is the data! You get to see you're estimated A1c readings based on last 14 days readings. You need only scan the sensor and you get the reading! I see complains about the reading not being accurate. I would like to highlight that there is always a margin or error +-10 from what is the actual one which should be acceptable. Only con is the price , I simply cannot afford to have it all the time at the moment. I would ask the abott India team to lower the price by 20-30 % atleast. Also this one does not have the low glocose proactive alarm that only comes with v3 which is yet to release in India.

The readings are constantly below that of a glucometer by atleast 40-50 points. It’s dangerous to mislead diabetic patients.We bought this sensor when my mom had a heart surgery and we needed to monitor her blood glucose levels constantly, to use with the Libre link app on android phone. But even after 3-4 days of using the sensor, the readings never stabilized. They are always lower by 40 -50 points.Initially we thought the readings were correct, but when we cross checked with our glicometer, they were way off. This can be dangerous for diabetic patients who think that their numbers are normal.When we reached out to the Abbott customer care, they replaced it saying it’s defective but the second one was the same. We have not seen even one reading match with our glucometers. I can understand a difference of + or- 10 points but what we were seeing was highly misleading. When we asked for a refund they said they will not refund.Also, please note this thing works only for 14 days annd they have an 3 day stabilization period! Adding to that the price is outrageous for this product with such bad performance. It’s outright cheating!

Has accuracy issues. But can’t say for sure if it is the accucheck makes error reading or the Libre. After 21 days of use think for directional readings this is useful. Also the customer support replaced my faulty CGM after 7 days of use. Overall satisfied and I may try the CGM again. I have retained the original review, below, unedited as of now.//This is definitely not worth the hype. For one the readings are inaccurate. And the inaccuracy is not consistent. One time the CGM reading is 223 against 206 on Accucheck and at another time CGM reading is 127 against 111 in Accucheck. The readings against Accucheck were mostly odd, and on some occasions matched. This is Not just a case of wrong data, but erratic reading.This sure gives you access to data, continuous data, but of what use is the data if it lacks integraty or reliability.Worse after 7 days of use it stopped working. But by now I had already decided CGM is not for me

This is my 2nd sensor and I must say it has been extremely helpful to monitor and regulate my sugar levels. Also stay tuned for a small tip to extend the sensor life by about 12hrs at the end.The best part of this sensor has been the abilty to understand how my body processes food and prevents going lows. I have learnt how my sugars fluctate at night and how they work during the day. How my sugar responds to when I go running was something I always wondered since I run a lot and before it was not possible to check my glucose during workouts. The sticker of the sensor is very good and sticks well with no discomfort or itch. The sensor application too is painless and pressing on the sensor after application too does not cause any pain. I was initially worried the sensor may get loose when turning in bed during sleep, but no it holds very good. Taking showers is also no problem. Now the tip to extend the sensor life by half a day. I realised the sensors life is actually pegged at 14.5 days and even after the sensor has expired as per the reader its still continues to work. You can install the GLIMP app on your Android phone (no iOS app) and still get the reading for another 12 odd hours.It's a great buy for all diabetes but I am not happy with the reader, the review of which I have left on the reader product page. Read that too to get a complete picture of the system and how to live it.
