Freestyle free 3 in Spain

marine's profile photo   03/31/2022 9:41 p.m.

I have been with free 3 for a few days (no, they have not given it to me in the health center, I have bought it) and it is great.The first day it showed about 25 mg/dl below the glycemia indicated by the glucometer, but on the second day, it was already catchy to capillary measurement.

As I said, I installed the app on an Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro (Android v. 11).You have to activate the NFC (only at the beginning, for the first scan) and Bluetooth.You have to give some permissions related to battery savings, which the alarms sound even if you have activated the "do not disturb", show notifications on the lock screen (if you want), etc.The sounds of alarms (high, low, without a signal, etc.) can be customized individually.The app is very similar to that of free 2.

You will have seen images of the sensor size, but until you wear it, you don't really see how small and flat it is.I have continued using Skin Tac before putting the sensor and I have been covered with a patch.

Upon receiving glucose readings every minute, it impresses a bit to see the graphs;It is as if you are always in a roller coaster, even if you are in rank, but it is useful to see when insulin acts or when you go back a hypo.

For me the only inconvenience is that I have no reader.I really liked that of free 2, small and light, not to mention that you had two ways to check the blood glucose without using the glucometer.

DM1 desde abril 2018.
Toujeo y Fiasp.
Primero, Dexcom G4, luego, FreeStyle 2 (SS), ahora, Dexcom One (SS).

  

Remaining the size, no great advantage is seen compared to free 2 (Note: For those who use it with Diabox)
It still is not calibrable that for me is Abbott's biggest problem, but it will never be because his sales slogan is that he does not need calibration.

That they have not developed app for the free 3, it seems incredible.

It is not that they have not developed it, it is that Abbott does not take it out in Spain (no idea why).
In Germany and a year ago they sell the FSL3 and took the application for iOS rather than for Android.

They will want to finish the stock they have of the 2 before getting the 3. In Germany they would already end the contract of the 2 .. or something like that, because once they manufacture the 3 they will stop manufacturing the 2 ...

I think it will take the SS to supply it, until Abbot stops manufacturing the 2 and then they have no choice but to give it

The mobile has to take it with all the wareables yes or yes.I think there is only one that does not, nor do I remember the name.

I have not had it with a bracelet or what.
I use a paveled and xDri

Regarding submersible, the Mi Vabd does not know how it will go, the GW4 can but to some extent.

I have a Samsung Watch 4 and needs the mobile near but I have the diabox installed.The salt water cannot be submerged.
The price no idea, "Movistar gave it to me in exchange for 3 years more permanence.

I just called the endocrine to offer me a free freestyle 3 to try it.Now I am with the 2 and with Diabox.If I use the 3, it should be calibrating with Diabox?Can anyone tell me your experience with 3 and Diabox?

@Eregina I did not use any app than FreeLink's officer, I had Diabox and Glucose SletThe sensor data, if the sensor fails the applications, according to my way of seeing, the only thing that makes it a continuous meter, but for me it is no advantage,

@Andrespmat, my daughter also uses only the application of the free, the others lost a sign, and this one is doing very well, the glycosilada comes out almost equal to the analytics.
I hope that the 3 is equally reliable or more, and it will be continuous, without the need for another app.

While the 3 does not send the information to my watch, to see my gluco without having to take the phone out of your pocket, I will continue to need Diabox.It is not operational while I do sports activities, have to look at the mobile and if it is to look at the clock on the wrist.

And from my experience, the calibration that does not allow and I do with Diabox, if necessary.I always try to be very tight.The difference between which free tells me that I am in Hipo and Diabox marks me 15 more corroborated with capillary ... that is, between 65 and 80, it is essential when making decisions about whether I provide carbohydrates or not.

Obviously it is my case, not extrapolable to others.
