    Accu-Chek Combo supplies

    Hi guys Did a re-order for my daughters supplies and was told that the flex-link is being discontinued from Autumn 2019. Last hospital visit a fortnight ago nothing was mentioned and we were none the wiser so didn’t bring it up. Anyone got a clue what the alternatives are and are they ok...

    Freestyle Libre and Swimming

    Any parents with kids using freestyle libre?

    Niamh is trialling the libre at the moment, we are on day 9, we have had no issues at all. It's been really accurate and it gives us a real insight in to what is going on during periods where we think she's fine! Definitely seeing trends appear. On average we have saved about 5 finger pricks...
