[QUOTE="Bombjack, post: 1749642, member: 470766"] Just got my Libre yesterday, and I am blown away so far... Expected a stab of pain applying the sensor - but it was absolutely painfree! After 21 years of T1 Diabetes, doing exactly the same thing (short acting, long acting, finger pricks) this feels like a game changer! If my wife suspects I'm going hypo in the night now, she can just scan me :) Loving it. Abbott can clean up with this device. I'll have to self-fund mine, but it is a no-brainer so far. I'll find the money. I hope and pray, that Abbott reduce the price of the sensors in the future. In any normal market, prices drop once development and setup costs are recouped. With big pharma (diabetes in particular), I'm not convinced. Let's hope other companies are encouraged by Libre's success to up their game and come out with competitor products that will get the prices trending downwards. [/QUOTE]
