[Diabetes-Talk] Taking out the libre censor

[Amber Wallenstein]

Hi all,
I just wanted to thank everyone for their help. I took my sensor off, and I was able to put the new one on. I remembered everything the Walgreens person told me. Go me. LOL
I went to the app, and was able to scan my sensor. I am waiting the hour, and then I can test. 
Thanks again.
Amber

>> Also, I wonder if the phone still thinks that you have a day left on your sensor and that’s why it’s not letting you start a new one. Not sure.
