More thank likely you have thrush, quite often brought on by high blood sugars, get the oral pill and cream from the pharmacy or doctor. If you have high blood sugars try to get them more stable. Also dont forget if you have a partner they will more than liely need treated too.

Tell me about it, second day in I caught the bottom part of the mm2, I use the mm adhesive stickers, putting a t shirt on thought the worst that it would of ripped the libre sensor out but luckily it just caught the bottom of the mm2 and its stayed in place so far

Thanks lotties I will have a look, You seem to be right on top of working out whats going on with the libre and mm2, I have had it on for three days, first time mind you, and at the moment I am struggling to see all the benefits will probably just take time and more investigation into it. I...

you should find tomato on play store. For xdrip+ it's not on play store you need to download the APK for the app and install it that way. Google miaomiao xdrip and it will take you to the page on the miao miao website which will then have a link to download it

Got it all sorted. Was as simple as tuning flight mode on and off. Lottie's I have started to use xdrip+ seems ok if a bit confusing as there are so many different setting etc that you can change and not sure which ones will be of use or even what they do. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be...

I have received a miao miao 2 for Christmas which I am going to use with my libre and xdrip+, I did a test with it a couple of days after Christmas day and everything set up fine, however the miao miao ran out of charge after a couple of hours, yes I didnt charge it full before hand, so i...

I too have the libre and find it pretty accurate and good for spotting patterns overnight etc. for adjusting basal rate. I did ask my DSN if it would be an option to go on the dexcom, but for me to pay the difference between that and the libre. As say roughly £90 per month for the libre I would...

When I put my prescription in i get 4 sensors at a time, so two months worth, my prescription does say no more than 26 can be prescribed in a year though. H ave you tried ordering when your current sensor has 4-5 days left so you get the new one in time, surely the doctors not calculating the...

Thought i would do an update, decided to just stick with medtronic and go for the 670g. My decision was made on a few factors. 1. I already used medtronic, so its the easy option. 2. I will be unlikely to get a CGM in the near future so these functions did not matter. 3. The clinic I attend...

Cant comment on New Zeland, but for the USA take all the medication you need for the time there. As we all know anything medical over there is not cheap for example. Two year ago I was in New York and needed to get insulin, trip to the doctors for a prescription £100, two 10ml vials of novo...

Thanks for all the replies, I have the 640g just now and use the various different basal programmes it more the bolus I would like to be able to have preset for different days. Unfortunately I am not eligible to get a CGM from the NHS and funding myself is too costly. So that side of the meters...

You have managed to keep the same pump for 8 years, I am in Glasgow NHS too and that doesn't seem to be an option

Thanks it more with the basals on Medtronic you can only have one daily pattern. I have different requirements on a day off than a workday so need to manually change these values rather than having two preset days

The 640g worked well for me just looking for opinions on other manufacturers. If it's any help omnipod do a trial pod, not functional, that they send out for you see how it is wearing it.

My current pump the 640g is coming to the end of its warranty and is due am upgrade. Now when i started pumping 4 years ago there was not a choice of pumps from my NHS board. I have now been given the option of the 670g, omnipod and tslim. I have a few question of those who use these pumps. 1...

Your probably best going through a broker. Personally i have found the insurance surgery very helpful, knowledgeable and good at their job

I like the idea of tubeless with the omni pod but I was given the choice of the 640g and nothing else. In all honesty the canual is not as annoying as i thought it would be. Due for an upgrade in October so i imagine it will be the 670g

I have two spares ones, If you want one You can have it as i do not use the belt clips

Take double the amount of medication you think you will need and split it between you and travelling partners if you are travelling with someone else. You dont want to have try and get medication over there its not cheap, £650 for two 10ml vials of novo rapid, make sure you have insurance that...

I use the 640 and I know it's no help but I haven't found any really useful accessories I don't even use the supplied belt clip
