I just received my first one last Thursday. Love not having to poke my finger. The alarms are great! I had my first alarm telling me I was low at night while I was sleeping. I was able to wake up and take care of my low.
Thanks Mila. My doctor told me very little about the system and just gave me the prescription. This video gave me a much better understanding of what to expect. It really helped. Thanks again.
Thank you so much Mila! My husband was just prescribed this. We are so glad to have you to walk us through this new situation. It’s pretty scary stuff but your calm manners and explanation makes a big difference. Thank you and God bless you. You will be in our daily prayers. A grateful watcher, Patty!
Thank you so much for going over from start to end , looking at changing my two kids to this from the dex G5 . But we needed the alarms 🚨. Hope you are doing well .
Nice video, I'm using the regular 14 day for about a year now and at some point going to purchase the 2. Prices very dramatically, the cost at some pharmacies for just the reader itself can go from $90 to $80 all the way up to 120 so it will pay for your viewers to price shop. Thank you for informing us.
That's so crazy that you see it fluctuating so much where you are. I haven't been able to get mine covered by insurance until I meet the deductable, but they are about $70 per sensor in my area.
I finally find someone willing to take the time to explain how to use it it took me a while until I find you now I’m confident then I know what to do thank you very much
I'm so glad to hear it helped. I know putting it on for the first time can be confusing! I'm glad the video helped, and really glad you got your Freestyle Libre!
@@TheHangryWoman Yeah like they are gonna bother! Better get a miao miao those work with it, google the product, I NEED IT ON MY PHONE not some extra tech to lug around!
@@shadedlady4273 they will. So many users rely on their phones for the first generation sensors. It’s a huge deal that mobile app compatibility isn’t available yet. It’s developed, the FDA has to sign off. I don’t know for sure, but my guess is covid vaccines are being prioritized over everything else.
I use the freestyle Libre now and am currently waiting for the insurance to approve the new one but I love the 14 day system. I was testing 4 to 5 times a day. It is so much easier and better for me. Most times I don't even know it's there either so your right about that. I can't wait to try the new system!
I was testing like 4-5 times a day too. What a pain! The alarm on my phone was going off every time I turned around it seemed. I just got he libre2 and learning how to set it up now!
I have been using Nightrider Blucon with Freestyle Libre as a CGM and I must say it has taken my diabetes management to another level. The Linkblucon app also allows my family to follow my spikes and lows. It's the best CGM I've tried yet!
I am looking forward to your latest review on Libre 2. last I watched a couple of weeks ago... would like to hear how the alarm alert works for your high and lows.
Nice video, , I am using Freestyle Libre US 14days with Ambrosia Blucon over 8 months now, it converts Libre sensor into a full CGM and you will be able to see glucose readings every 5 minutes on phone and watch without scanning the Libre sensor. Now I don't need to scan the Libre sensor and gets reading every 5 minutes on my iPhone.
Oooh! I’m curious about it - so you find it to be intrusive at all? It looked like it sticks out a lot and I’m afraid of knocking it off but I’ve wanted to try!
I bought this device one year back and using it with Libre1. It helps me to reactivate my sensor for another 14 days and give me voice alerts when my bg values are not in range.
Thank you so much! I had to switch from Dexcom to Libre 2 because my insurance wouldn’t cover the Dexcom. So, I’m use to my Dexcom and my pump communicating with each other and I was skeptical about not having that option anymore. However, it’s not much at all to just punch my levels in my pump.
I know FSL 2 is a revolutionary device by the Abbott but still more features are need to added, like readings without scanning and alarms with numbers without scanning the sensor. That is why I have to use another CGM device on top of sensor and gets readings and alarms with numbers without scanning the sensor. life is so easy with Blucon and my sugar is in range.
I use Freestyle Libre1 with Blucon Nightrider and get readings on my phone directly without scanning the sensor. Also, the Linkblucon app updates me how food, exercise, insulin impacts on my glucose values. Both products are life changing.
Sounds great!! I use NightRider with Libre which is working very well. The LinkBlucon app has so many features which helps my alot with my exercise and Insulin and very easy for me to share readings and reports with my healthcare provider.
@@whitemailprivilege2830 thank you! I started to figured when I kept seeing them copy pasting the same comment over and over for the last 7 months 😂 shame on these blucon people for using bots.
Nice video, love the way you covered so much info. I have been trying to figure out why there is the freestyle libre system with a reader vs the systems like Levels that use a freestyle Libre sensor. What is the difference? What do all these software's offer that makes it different? Do you have any idea?
There is a huge difference - Levels and other metabolic health companies like it charge a subscription to read your data back to you and they do not cater to people with diabetes - rather to people in general who are interested in their metabolic health.
I personally feel Libre2 still need a CGM device to get automatic alarms without scanning the sensor that is why I'm not using Libre 2 as I have already been using additional device of Ambrosia, Nightrider blucon with my 14 day sensor which gives all sensor data to mobile without scanning the sensor also when my BG level is out of range it gives me alarms with HI/Lo sugar value. That's what make FSL a full CGM device
@@TheHangryWoman ohhh ok so me searching for one for hours today (and downloading several that won’t work) is because there isn’t one yet. Makes sense lol (I should have known).
I just got the Freestyle Libre 2 from my doc's office and i love it!! This is my first time using a CGM System and it has made my life so much easier! I just had a quick question. How do I download my blood glucose data, so that I can email it to my doctor?
I'm so glad you're loving your Libre 2! It's so much better than fingersticks, right? I always ask the nurse in my doctor's office to download the data straight from my meter. Freestyle Libre 2 doesn't have a mobile app yet in the USA, but once it does, you'll also be able to share with your doctor as well.
Nice video but what I have noticed with Libre 2 is that we still have to scan the sensor with reader to get readings even though it gives alarm. To get automatic readings even after alarms we have to use a CGM device. I'm using Blucon Nightrider wich gives alarms on HI/LO glucose level, fast rise, fast low and many more available in settings. Also, Libre 2 doesn't allow to share readings with loved ones, whereas Ambrosia's another Followblucon app allows sharing readings with 5 loved ones.
I'm on my third day with it, so it's still pretty new to me. Abbott does say that a mobile app is waiting for FDA approval. I'll ask about the sharing features! I currently also share my data with family on the Freestyle Libre 14 Day system. Although I can download my data from the reader, I do want them to get real-time alerts again.
@@TheHangryWoman That is possible through CM device only. Blucon is one of the CGM devices which gives automatic alarms with reading, Share readings, download reports etc. you can get more details from www.ambrosiasys.com
I have a question I am waiting for my first cgm libra 2 I have seen people have to check blood with fingers tick do I use my old machine or is there a way to use the recever?
Thank you so much. I was just put on the FreeStyle Libre 2 on the March 18th, 2021. The thing I couldn’t figure out was when it just says Hi or Low. How would we know what those #s are?
I've just given up using the Libre 2 ! My BSL levels (Aus Metric) were constantly showing, between 2 and 2.5 below what they actually were. So I would get a 3.9 reading, wondering why I didn't feel hypo (
I'm sorry to hear that. I also hope you called customer care and had those sensors returned and replaced. If they malfunction in any way, Abbott does send you a replacement, and ask you to return them (they pay for the shipping). That's a huge difference. Also, it takes about 20 minutes for a scan to catch up to a finger stick. But, your finger stick will always be more accurate in the moment.
I’m newly diagnosed. I just picked up a libre 2 and my Dr thought I could just use the app. Now I’m frustrated and upset because I have a sensor on my arm and no reader and no app interface. In my research I found out I could download the app from another country’s apple store but that just sounds like too much, having to create a whole new Apple ID and using a fake foreign address 🤦🏻♀️ Now I wish they had started me with the previous freestyle version
Do I reset the reader for each change of sensor? How often do I scan the sensor throughout the day? And will the reader alarm you when it needs to be charged?
Yes, change the sensor every 14 days and the reader gives you a countdown for how long your sensor is active, and tells you when to change it. You can scan the sensor anytime you want, as many times as you want.
I wish I knew more, but last I heard, the app is still going through FDA approval. My guess is they with COVID, many things have gotten pushed back. I’m eager for it to come out too!
I change it every 14 days, and the sensor alerts me when it's time to change. I shower with it, go swimming and exercise and it usually stays put all 14 days. It's been a great device for monitoring my blood glucose.
@@TheHangryWoman Good to know! Looking at videos and trying to figure out if it will be an option for me. Even with a online coupon it’s still a bit much.
@@HiMyNameIsSeven I know CGMs can be pricey. I hate that diabetes supplies cost so much. Ask your health care provider if they’d be willing to let you wear the pro version. It gives you a feel for what it’s like to put one on, and wear one. The pro version used by your doc is often covered by insurance (just be sure to double check).
I'm new to this. For some reason my reader is the 14 day edition and my sensors are labeled libre 2. The manufactures coupon doesn't work. The sensor doesn't work with a iphone 6 either. This has been confusing. I'm not using yet due to the confusion.
It might be that your pharmacy didn't fill the right reader with the right sensors, or your doctor wrote the prescription wrong. You can ask your doctor to give you a new prescription for the libre 2 reader, and see if you can return the 14 day one. Your libre 2 sensors unfortunately won't work with the phone app yet. I'm so sorry it has been confusing for you. I'm sure you must have been excited to finally get your CGM, too.
@@TheHangryWoman I went back to my doctor and asked her to send in a script for Libre 2 and she didn't. I give up. Doctors and pharmacy both are messing up.
They still haven't come out with an app for the Libre 2. Would you say to stick with the 14 day Libre for the convenience of checking with your phone ?
If I understand your question, this is the new sensor and only currently works with the new Freestyle Libre 2 reader. The old sensor works with the mobile phone app and Freestyle 14 day sensor. When you're done with the sensor, you throw it in a sharps container.

Good Location! Do not put it on the outside of your arm. It hurts!!! When you apply it and during the entire time you are wearing it! Trust me, I know. And you risk knocking it off if you bump into the wall or another person.

Yes, change the sensor every 14 days and the reader gives you a countdown for how long your sensor is active, and tells you when to change it. You can scan the sensor anytime you want, as many times as you want.

Do you know when the Libre 2 for iphone is coming to the US
I wish I knew more, but last I heard, the app is still going through FDA approval. My guess is they with COVID, many things have gotten pushed back. I’m eager for it to come out too!
Just received my unit today and about to attach. Can you monitor with long sleeves on or through clothing that covers the sensor?
Absolutely! It’s harder through thick jackets, but I’m able to scan through long sleeves, hoodies, cardigans and light jackets.
How many times do you change the needle? Do you shower with the needle? Does it fall? Thank you.
I change it every 14 days, and the sensor alerts me when it's time to change. I shower with it, go swimming and exercise and it usually stays put all 14 days. It's been a great device for monitoring my blood glucose.
From any site that I can buy, you can send me a link to the site from which I can buy a FreeStyle second generation sensor
Do you have to use the same sensor for your next free style
You change the sensor every 14 days, but you do use the same reader with every sensor.
It happened so fast 😧 Is the sensor applicator spring loaded? I’m assuming it is because of the loud click 😊 that scared me more than anything 😆
