[Diabetes-Talk] Taking out the libre censor

Thu Jan 17 21:56:58 UTC 2019

Dar,

I believe Veronica addressed this a few days ago. No meter is going to be 100% with accuracy. And you will not be able to get 2 different meters to have aligning numbers every time. The point to manually test and input the numbers on the app for CGMs is to calibrate, but unless you feel drastically different, there's nothing you can do to make the numbers match better.

The first time I put on a meter I check one time to see how close the numbers are.
Stil never got a call from Edd to lern how to make sure both numbers are close together if possible.
So glad this is working for you.
