What is the lag time between blood glucose readings and sensor readings?
Blood glucose readings tend to be about 2 minutes ahead of sensor readings.[ii]
Do not ignore symptoms that may be due to low or high blood glucose. If you have symptoms that do not match the Sensor glucose reading or suspect that your reading may be inaccurate, check the reading by conducting a finger stick test using a blood glucose meter. If you are experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with your glucose readings, consult your health care professional.
