[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2084475, member: 6467"] Me again.:) I am finding this all very confusing. My Libre peaked at 8.7 at around 11:45 and has been dropping steadily since, and is now down to 5.0 and still apparently dropping 2.45 hours later. I really do wish this was accurate because I would love those numbers, but it doesn't seem to match my finger prick tests which are considerably higher. I'm still waiting for the Libre sensor readings to flatten out more or less, as they did overnight. Then I can take a finger prick or two and have some idea of a comparison. If the sensor is reading around 1.5 mmol/L low then my readings for today so far are a bit worrying because an 8.7 could map onto over 10 and all I've had today is my bullet resistant coffee at around 09:00. I've ordered a batch of test strips from Diabetes UK because this detailed testing is eating up my current stock in no time at all, and I am limited in the number that I can get on prescription.
