I don't continuously wear a monitor, just when I'm experiencing some flux in my glucose measurements. In big print, all the Libre 2 monitors I have had say to double check odd or unexpected glucose readings or reading that don't correspond with how you are feeling with a finger prick device. I have had the low glucose warning several times and I double check it. Only once has it been a real low glucose reading. Technology can be very helpful but you still have to use it correctly.
