Knowledge is power

I'm using this tool to learn how different foods are affecting my glucose levels. If less expensive, I believe more people would use these, and benefit from the data. They would then have the knowlege to be more responsible in their own food choices and be asble to see how it affects them. Peopl...

Poor experience with first time use of the Freestyle Libre

When the sensor works it is quite satisfactory. Issues have occurred related to the sensor coming off and a replacement sensor sent by Abbott that didn't work right out of the box.

Great when they work, but…..,

This is an incredibly useful tool to help manage your blood sugars when they are functioning correctly, however I think only one in three sensors work. Abbott does replace them but I do not have a prescription for these and have to pay full price. They need to work on their quality control. Often these do not work right out of the box

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

sensors are faulty

Submitted 8 months ago

By andrew T

From Burlington ON

I have only had a 45% success rate getting readings, the units work in batches where i had 3 in a row not function/stop reading. Abbott asked for the serial numbers which are in impossible to read fine print on sensors where it is a lengthy process to get credit. The reality is they can see if teh sensors are nort working and rather than be proactive they waste yrou time. I am effectively dying of diabetes and rely on these sensors to prolong my life through managing my disease. They are bottom line focused where it is abouttheir profits not yrou health.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Worked as advertised

Received my sensor as a trial. Loved the numbers (if they're accurate), very helpful in managing my pre-diabetes in order to stay off meds. But, will not continue use because it's so very expensive without insurance coverage. Has anyone calibrated this sensor's readings with the regular finger prick tests and see if they're accurate? Or compared the sensor's estimated A1c with lab results?

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Poor experience with first time use of the Freestyle Libre

Submitted 2 years ago

By KT

From Lacombe

When the sensor works it is quite satisfactory. Issues have occurred related to the sensor coming off and a replacement sensor sent by Abbott that didn't work right out of the box. Began using the systems on August 20, 2024 when I purchased two Libre 2 sensors from our local Shoppers Drug Mart, which were partially covered by my work health insurance plan. Applied one and then four days later a minor bump on our door jamb dislodged the sensor so that it was no longer functional. Phoned Abbott and they sent a replacement sensor that takes about 3-10 business days to arrive. I applied the second sensor I purchased on August 25, but then also applied an adhesive circular bandage to reduce the risk of the sensor coming loose or being knocked off. Worked very well. The bandage is intended for use with the Libre system. Two weeks later as per the guidelines the sensor was removed and a new one applied, which was the one sent directly by Abbott. Waited an hour and then when I tried to read the newly applied sensor I got an error message that the sensor wasn't working and that it needed to be replaced. Unfortunately, this was a new sensor that was just applied. Called Abbott and another sensor is on its way. However, my health care plan likely won't cover another purchase of sensors until later in September. Considering stopping my use of the Libre 2 sensor system and going back to the finger prick method of blood glucose monitoring.

This Should Be Covered for Pre-Diabetics and People "At Risk

Submitted 2 years ago

By AndreaC

From Battleford

Iam pre-diabetic but until I'm a full blown diabetic my insurance will not cover these highly sophisticated tools which constantly monitor my eating, exercise and food habits that reflect my blood glucose levels. These should be used for diagnostic tools to PREVENT disease and not just manage it. So easy to use and utilize with my smart phone. I can look and see what I eat affects my levels and that exercising improves my levels. This tool is way easier than a standard glucose monitor. Nothing to carry around except your phone and we all do that anyways. Prevention is the key
