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.

Why are the alarms optional?

Not all patients need glucose alarms. The FreeStyle Libre 2 system offers alarms for those who need or desire them. However, all patients can simply choose to keep the alarms turned off.
