Introduction
Welcome to this guide on getting the most out of your Freestyle Libre 3 (FSL3) continuous glucose monitor (CGM). As a longtime user of the Freestyle Libre system (both Libre 2 and Libre 3), I’ve learned many lessons that can help new users avoid common pitfalls and enjoy a smoother experience. I have been using the Libre 3 ever since it came on the market about 1.5 years ago. During that time, I have not had a bad sensor, no lengthy signal disconnects/losses, no wonky sensor readings, or anything like that. I think it’s the best CGM ever released. It’s the smallest and least obtrusive CGM ever, and has all the features you want, including automatic minute-by-minute updates and 14-day sensor length. Abbott has garnered attention for the Libre 3’s remarkable accuracy and ease of use. In this E-book, I’ll cover everything from activating your sensor to understanding your glucose data, along with practical tips to address challenges you may face along the way. I’ll share with you my personal secrets to get the same level of error-free use and peace of mind. This E-book has continued to expand in size due to all the topics that need to be covered. It is an intricate piece of hardware that works with your phone or a reader. This complexity means you may have lots of questions. I have tried to anticipate your questions and included as many topics as you may have questions about. This makes for a lengthy document but I hope you will save and refer back to it as you have questions. The Freestyle Libre 3 system is a game-changer for individuals with diabetes, offering a convenient and effective way to monitor glucose levels without the need for many painful finger sticks. It is a complex little device in a very small package. It’s amazing all the electronics, battery, sensors and other components wrapped into a tiny package. The Libre 3 is a powerful tool for managing diabetes, but like any technology, it requires some knowledge and attention to detail to get the most out of it. If you follow my guide, you’ll have an error free experience
