Reviews: What People Think About Lingo by Abbott
Mad35554
Rating: 3/5
The cgm seems to work as well as the prescription ones in my case, but at a more affordable price since it’s not designated for diabetics. I am using mine for informational purposes and pre diabetes. I knocked off two stars because I just don’t get their lingo point system. It seems counter intuitive and they don’t give any information on the whys of their point assignments. (I’d love a Facebook group where they have an expert assigned to answer questions). It often rewards a crazy high spike and crash with few points where a mild rise within the goal range that levels out more slowly is assigned more points. So essentially it rewards you for skipping meals. I also have regular excessively low readings that don’t reflect my true numbers from sleeping on my side. The points system starts my meal from those lows giving a very skewed point reading. I’ve just decided to quit looking at their points and focus on keeping my blood sugar within the healthy range. It works fine most of the time to give me a fairly accurate glucose reading. When I have a problem they are quick to replace a damaged sensor.

I like Abbotts lingo device. It’s important to choose a good spot on ur arm so it’s not in the way as much and not in a muscle- I did that and it caused nerve pain in my arm. I recommend holding your arm up and tracing the line of fat directly from ur elbow. On this line choose between the elbow and like at least 4 fingers from your arm pit. I made this deduction from looking at many pictures and videos of people with glucose monitors after the one bad placement I did. So far I haven’t had an issue since. If u are a new apple user like me and the app suddenly stops letting u in ur probably in for a device update- I was- so don’t pull ur monitor off yet! You actually might be just fine! I have had where the monitors will not read for a few hours but it’s pretty rare. And it also gives a timeline of when it should be up and reading again. Sometimes it’s 20 min but often it’s like a hour or two. I’ve had this happen about 3 times.. I think. I’ve had lingo for almost 3 months now. I plan on continuing. I find it to be an interesting experience knowing my blood sugar. But also if I am having really low or high blood sugar i usually can figure out why and do something about it.

I started using the Lingo app to see how different foods would trigger my glucose to spike so I could make different decisions before choosing what to eat, whether that was what I would meal prep for the week, whether I should save a snack now or later, etc. I think the app is simple, straightforward, and easy to use. I personally love it.
If I could make any suggestions, I would say that there should be a way for you to easily select foods that you eat often when entering them in the food log. I don’t like that I constantly have to type over and over again the same meals that I eat on a daily or weekly basis. I also don’t like that the options that do come up when logging the food are so specific. Also, when you log your food I don’t know why the timestamp is never on the current time. You always have to make adjustments to put the time at the time that it currently is. The last thing that I would suggest is to have an easy way within the app to re-order biosensors before your current one expires so that way there won’t be a lapse.
