diabox send it to the trash directly, as freeLink took continuous readings.It is of no use to juggle with calibrations, if the results that your SS doctor takes, are those of LibreLink.Lost of time and counterproductive to carry the disease.The changes made by the doctor are the ones that have to take for the results that come via freeLink.If you are on another way ......

I don't care what the endocrine says if you trust freelink and it doesn't go well.If Free says Glico 5 and then I give 6 in analytics I trust more than the analytics.And if you have to look for a solution to those great differences, calibrating with Diabox or doing more
capillaries, because he is sought.The counterproductive is to believe you things that you know are not true when you check them with the glucometer.

DM 2 con páncreas agotado desde diciembre 2020. 51 años entonces.
HG diciembre 2020: 15.9. Última HG: julio 2024 5.8

After many fights with my endocrine, and carrying it Excel with the deviations between LibreLink, capillaries and calibrated Diabox ..... It has ended up recognizing that effectively my glycosylated control is very good.And he also began to tell me that he had too many hypos.When I showed them that they were not real is when he began to understand me.It is not the same as free to mark you 65 that, in reality, to be at 80 and not need glucose contribution.But it cost him, it cost him ... well and how he forgets it, every 6 months I have to remember it.

And it may seem that all diabetics try to carry a rigorous control of our glycosilada.But it is not true.Those of us who try to carry some control are a minority.The vast majority of dependent insulin people do what they can and understand goodly.And of course, as the specialists just get nervous when they see glycos that overcome 7 ... Well, everything else is worth.And no, it is not the same glycosylated from 5 to 6, than from 6 to 7. It has nothing to do.Nor the consequences in the future, either.

Totally agree @
More than once I have touched the endocrine with a resident or medical student and tells them, here comes a good patient, with everything controlled and the header tells me that I am one of the few people who control their illness.

By the way I already changed the sensor and the new one went well from the first moment with LibreLink.Although I see that free2 is slower than free3.

Free3 When I took something with sugar in 5 minutes, I was starting to climb and at 10 to take a peak, the free2 takes about 15-20 minutes to start and it goes up slowly.Sometimes I think it's wrong but it's just slowly, in 15-20 minutes it matches the glucometer.

Another point for free3.

Personally free2 does not go wrong according to the lot that touches.It also influences that I am a person with very routine habits, both food and exercise, which is obviously doing well, not only free2 but any sensor we use.The more flat your trends (low food in HC; meal schedules; of sleep; exercise) the better everything will go in general.

Then there have been lots that are a real disaster.It doesn't matter as calibres, do not calibrate, to do the pine with your ears.They go bad from minute 1 and are rarely fixed.I do not use Diabox.I used it very in the beginning, and I ended up passing.I have used free1 (years ago, paid by me) and free2 (long ago, paid and then subsidized).

I have used Cachoharrería: Miaomiao (1 and 2) and the bubble.And Diabox ... and in the end, after a lot of observation, to me, the direct method of XDrip and a calibration per day (whenever I am without insulin effect, food or exercise ... that is, when I get up through theTomorrow early) is for me the best combination I can aspire to right now.

And there they have pointed out.Free2 although with its last update (of the app) it looks more and more to a CGM, it is not really.It is still flash.And that "flash" makes it delayed with respect to the hair measurement you do.Free3 does seem to be a CGM (I have not been lucky enough to try it).I hope that soon the replacement of free2 arrives at us2.

This free2 that I have now goes quite well.

The truth is that both free3 and 2, if the sensor is fine, nothing is necessary to calibrate.

If it does not match the glucometer, it will be going up or down quickly and of course if you calibrate it there, you get worse.

When stable and the sensor is not defective, it always coincides with the glucometer (from the second day in free2) I do not understand the need to calibrate anything.You still have the glucometer badly.

Because I have also been comparing 3 glucometers (Sinocare, Accucchek Instant and Vivachek) and now I trust the sensor than of glucometers.

What is still worse than in free3, are the "glucose reading errors not available again at 10 minutes."In free2 they are much more common than in 3.

@Sherpa41, companion, which we are usually transitted here we have been with the capillaries and the deviations from free2.I have not used it.In my case, the best sensors give me deviations of -15 at least.That in Hiper Mo worries me, but in hip si, and much, because my goal is to be between 70 and 120 whenever I can.That, and I speak for me, is the objective of the needs of calibrating and not by whim.If free2 would measure well, as the manufacturer tries to sell, it would not be necessary to calibrate.But no, a 70s gluco is not the same and need to provide carbohydrates, that if the capillary tells you 85 and be where you want to be without the need to contribute anything.

Abbot itself takes for good deviations of more than 30 between sensor and capillary.His argument is that the sensor does not have to be necessary, but serves to mark rapid ascents or descents and thus be able to anticipate.

Why do those who carry insulin bomb if they have the option to calibrate?Because to make therapeutic decisions, they do not trust the data provided by the sensor.

And if you free you2, it measures you perfectly, then fortunate that you are.

Have you tried another glucometer?

I already tell you that I have 3 and each one marks 10-20 apart.And when one marks differently than the sensor, if with the same glucometer I try another strip, it is already equal to the sensor.

It is true that near the hypos, as a precaution, it measures a little less.But if you calibrate it a lot (at least to me) then Diabox loses the ability to warn you of hypers or hypos.That seems unacceptable.

Although well, possibly if you calibrate it only in a very narrow range that does not happen.But I would never recommend Diabox for the general diabetic.As soon as it would calibrate it, it would spoil the detection of hypos.

It is true that in the hypos by caution it measures a little less.But if you adjust (at least to me) then Diabox loses the ability to notify you of the hypos.That seems unacceptable.

Although good the same if you always move in a very narrow range that does not happen.But I would never recommend Diabox for the General Diabetic.

You are right, there are differences even in the glucometers, I have two and they never give the same, but it is more I think that neither the reactive strips do the same, you look with one and then you put another one and you measure again and they do not give the same either, therefore I take a small variation with the censor and I mean between 10 and 30.

Nothing that is accurate has yet come out.Or at least they have not commercialized it.They have to maximize all the systems they have, before putting anything new in the market that will make obsolete everything they are now selling.And surely they already have it, Peeeeero .... It is the friends.

And by the way, I refuse to give valid variations of 30 or more between capillaries and sensors.

Calibrating is not mandatory.Abbott tells you that they are not looking for precision but approximate trends and values.120 or 140, if in these values ​​you do not act with insulin, it does not matter.Raids for decisions are sought.160, 180 or 60 ... for that the sensor is scheduled and that is why it measures the interstitial fluid that is not the real glucose that the bloodstream carries.

For precision, blood analytics, there is no other that is what measures the bloodstream.

To claim Abbott for deviations, in particular, they only admit their brands of strips and gluconstros.

In 8 years that I use the sensor, I have calibrated all and I have my glycos below 6. Calibro in all ranges.

If the endocrine makes you a glyc of strip gives you 3 points above the real in blood analytics.It is the same, the endocrine looks for an approximation, it does not matter 6.4, see that you are not around 7.

@Ruthbia This that glycosilada is 3 points higher than the one that would come out in analytics, is it for any type of meter?On one occasion it has been done by the endocrine in consultation and he has not told me, he has given it for good.Three points is not much, but going out thinking that you are 7 and really having 6.7 can make you discourage you (that none is good at all, I know).

DM 1 desde el siglo pasado :) (agosto 1998).
Bomba Accuchek Aviva Combo con novorapid de mayo 2015 a mayo 2023. Tras probar unos meses la bomba medtronic 780g vuelvo a las plumas hasta dar con una bomba que se ajuste a mí (y yo a ella)
Freestyle libre 2 desde octubre 2020.
También con gastritis autoinmune.

  

Well, @anabela I talk about the times that the endocrine has done to me in consultation, I think 4 times in total;He has always given me above the Real.She only tells me that well, that the glycosylated strip always measures a little above.

But the same thing happens with the sensor, it takes a drop of blood from a capillary, the veins have another composition, the capillaries have other functions in the body and do not carry the same as the veins.They are all approaches.

Do you know if free freestyle 3 works with Diabox?

And on the other hand, do Dabox work with iOS (Apple) again?

Thank you.

Too bad, I had it for a while in iOS when I could still and was the one I liked the most.

Now they say that Apple will allow third -party stores (for apps) on its devices, to see if so ...

Do you know if there is any free compatible app3 alternative to the original?Glucose direct or similar ...

What I do not understand is how it is possible to remove the pancreas and survive but not heal the diabetes.
Eye, I'm glad those who live without pancreas but before they said it was vital and that medicine was not very advanced because it is a very difficult multifunctional organ.And I speak 10 years ago.

My father died in 2010 of pancreatic cancer.When they detected it they told the family that the transplant was not an option, that it was an organ that could not be transplanted.

Sorry for your father 🙏🏻.They currently transplant pancreas.

They operated on me and took my tumor, and with it 2/3 of pancreas and the spleen.I live insulin, but live.

Diabetes post quirúrgica desde el 02/03/17, Toujeo, Novorapid, y ahora también metformina después de las comidas.
Freestylelibre 2 desde mediados de diciembre 2021, que me lleva loca.

  

After having tried a few more sensors, it is not that he hit such a big free3 to free2.I see that it depends a lot on the sensor in particular and in my case I also put it on.

What bothers me a lot of free2 is that when I need it most, too often gives reading error.When there is a decrease or a very fast climb, I usually give me an error that can be 5 minutes at 1 and a half without working.

This morning I was 300 I correct me a couple of times and when it starts to go down very fast it gives me reading error, at 15 minutes it connects, gives 150 and is disconnected again.It takes another 15 minutes to give a new reading and brand 69.

The same did the same but with a climb.With rapid up and down I remember that free3 had no problems.
