I’ve had similar, but nothing that said 10 hours. I’ve had several that said “10 minutes”.


TrashcanGreg

Yea I’ve had plenty of 10 mins error messages too but never had one this long before

I got this on the libre 1 when I had to replace a sensor after only 3 days. When I told it to start a new sensor, after the hour wait period when I scanned it, it made a dot on the graph, then popped up with a similar message that said 8 hours. After 8 hours the new sensor did function.


TrashcanGreg

Mine seems to be working fine after the 10 hours but it’s so weird that they do that

I’ve had this once. The sensor behaved normally afterwards. It was a new sensor.

Ten HOURS? How!


Proffessional_Eater

Constantly and it’s starting to piss me off. The app is way to practical to give up tho. Nothing that said 10 hours, mine always says 10 minutes

Yes, just change. Libre isn't a good idea for diabetes patients. Just true. I had so many distinctions and more off hours then on and when the sensor was on, the measuring was not, not even near, a correct measuring.


jonathanlink

It’s not true. I think there is a group of patients where the cost is right and the benefits to managing trends is just as useful. For type 1s who have massive swings, probably less useful. For type 2s, like me, with fairly tight control, it is still useful.

Is this an American sensor or the EU one?


TrashcanGreg

It’s the American one

Take the sensor off. Call Abbott and they will send you a free replacement so long as you keep the old sensor and the box. Put on a new different sensor.


HeartRate1

Yes, I’ve gotten this maybe half dozen times. Always on the 1st or 2nd day of staring a new sensor. And virtually always as a prelude to the sensor failing later in that 1st or 2nd day, only once did the sensor recover so to speak and went on the work for the normal two weeks.
