So i upgraded to the libre 3 and loving it - because its smaller, dont have to scan, good for 14 days and seems way closer to fingerprick tests from day 1 than the libre 2 was… also, it let me shut off alarms which is great… my husband phone with libre link up still screams at my lows and highs, but mine only screams for extreme lows… i haven’t had any extreme highs the last month, so don’t know if it does for that too… a bunch of times since starting libre 3, we would see a low alarm on my husband’s app ( ii would receive no alert and it may just rise up to normal levels on its own… later when i look at the graph , it wont show anything below 70… like last night, i went to 54 and it screamed, i took 15g of glucose tablets in my sleep and saw an hr or so later that it was 176 or so… this morning tho, when i look at the graph, it doesn’t show a dip at all… the logbook only saves a reading if i make a note when i check the level. I did last night when i took the glucose tabs, so i know i wasn’t just craving sweets in my dreams… any thoughts on why it does what it does??
