    iphone ios 17 update shuggah apple watch

    Hmmm…not had exactly this issue, but Shuggah has been doing weird things in the last week, like telling me I’m 1.4 for hours on end when meter says more like 5 or 6. I hadn’t connected it to the update but perhaps it’s caused gremlins.

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    I think one year is about average - I am registered with a consultant and see them once a year.

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    Thanks - this is interesting to hear. To be honest, I’m at a loss regarding arguments to put forward that I haven’t already tried. The most memorable was talking about impact on mental health/increased anxiety - was told that the answer to that was to worry less about TIR, aim for 70% but no...

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    Yes. I didn’t have a cgm 2 years ago. It’s good to be optimistic rather than cynical and downtrodden like me.

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    Yes. I know that a lot of people with the technology have it because they have been unable to maintain good control despite the best of efforts. But, the system we have that encourages us to work hard for the best control that we can - rightly so, it’s in our own best interests! - but then says...

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    I’m sorry this is the case for you as well! I swing between feeling guilty about being selfish and really upset about it, then downright angry. I suspect there must be a whole large group of us out there who are falling in the gap. My worry is that we will now forever be in this gap - that we...

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    Because the consultant literally laughs at me every time I ask. I don’t meet any of the criteria. My A1Cs are consistently in the 5%s, I am not a child, I am not pregnant or planning to be, I don’t have disabling hypos etc. On the one hand I acknowledge that I’m lucky to be in that position and...

    NHS to Offer Closed Loop Pumps to 150,000 T1 Diabetics

    Same. Of course I’m glad to see the advances in technology, pleased for the children etc. But I can’t get a pump and won’t get this either. Can’t lie that it stings.

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    You are so kind to go to this trouble! Thank you very much - the culprit was ‘other apps’ in the H Band app notifications. All working now.

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Yes, my Libre just says sensor loss all the time now and sends repeated annoying alarms to my phone to tell me that.

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Well, this just never ends. I had successfully reinstalled app, was back up and running on Libre, though had realised I preferred Shuggah anyway, but changed sensor yesterday and it just can’t maintain signal for more than a couple of minutes at a time. I’m sure I can reinstall app again, just...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Thanks again! Ordering one now. For £18 can’t really go wrong and would be so much more convenient

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Thanks v much. Does it work with iPhone? Just looking at Apple watches and they’re really expensive even on eBay, given that I have no other interest in owning one other than to connect to Shuggah.

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Oh, this is interesting. I know nothing about Smart watches - if I run a search on Amazon will any one link with Shuggah or do I need to look for certain functionality? I love the notifications from Shuggah but conscious that looking at your phone continually at work looks a bit off…watch could...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    And also disappointingly, but not surprisingly, is a ‘no reply’ email address. As first thing I did was hit ‘reply’ to give them a piece of my mind!!

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Can confirm that I’ve just checked Libreview and all my data is there - except the 24hrs where I had no app- although I haven’t scanned in last 8 hrs.

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Completely agree - this functionality is a complete revelation and why on earth has Abbott not been offering it when they are basically supplying the majority of type 1s in the country?! Smacks of complacency. They have the business in their pocket and why bother. These Shuggah notifications...
