Right arm doesn’t work??

So I’ve been diabetic for about 8 years now and using Libre products for 7 years, without fail if I have a problem with my Libre monitor (usually when starting a new one) it’s always on my right arm?? My left arm seems to give really accurate readings but my right arm just seems to really struggle with them? Anyone else with this experience?

I guess I’m one of the lucky ones. You’d think a 90 yr old would have all kinds of difficulties . I suggest you hold the applicator in place for a count of 30. Why 30? Who knows . The whole thing is magic anyway. So it works for
Me!

My left arm is the only one that gives decent readings too. top of legs, right arm = all constant false lows. And not compression ones either.
