Hello Joel, I have had great success in using the Libre 3. Make sure you
have the appropriate app for the 3. You doctor or endocrine specialist may
ask if yhou want to pair it with their clinic, that is your choice. I have
had good success in placing the sensor on the back of my arm, in the center
and about 3 inches up from my elbow. The sensors are changed every 14 days
and it is best if you alternate the application site. The app is not
entirely accessible, for example, I can't access the trend graphs. I can
access immediate levels and 1 week, 3 month averages...
Make sure your application site is completely clean of body oils; I use
alcohol and cotton balls rather than alcohol wipes.
